The Katimavik (Eskimo word for 'meeting place'), a huge inverted pyramid, is the focal point of the Canadian pavilion at the 1967 World Exhibition. The Canadian exhibit, built on 21 acres of the largely man-made Ile Notre Dame, is the largest pavilion, national or private. The Canadian government commenced construction on June 18, 1965.
