This year I was invited by GDC Manitoba to come and give a talk with slides of my work, which covered ‘our’ 50 Years. And the vibrancy of the Winnipeg group convinced me that just maybe what Sam [Smart], Frank [Davies], John [Gibson] and I started 50 long years ago really was worthwhile. I hope that you—today’s GDC—will be sure to remind Canada who you are, and what we do! > Frank Newfeld FGDC Designing Canada for 50 Years 50 années de design au Canada TDC/GDC 1956–2006 Society of Société des 3 Graphic Designers of Canada designers graphiques du Canada I recently received in the mail two items that have floored me. One is the booklet Designing Canada for 50 Years and the other was Graphex’06, the catalogue showing the latest in the Graphex exhibitions. The standards of professional excellence are a tribute to the designers and reflect the work that was put into the forming of TDC in 1956, and continued by so many over those fifty years. This has been successful to a degree that could not have been envisioned by the founding few, certainly not by myself, though I must admit to a pleasant swelling of pride at having been involved in those early days in Toronto. Remembering those years brings to mind a clear picture of Sam Smart FGDC who was the prime mover. He gave so much of his time and energy to the concept with a bouyancy that brooked no hurdle. > John Gibson FGDC It is hard to realize the essential differences between 1956 and today. When the GDC was founded we were still recovering from years of war which had taken us from a normal life of developing our careers to dressing in uniforms and attacking or being attacked. Upon my return to Canada I met other designers who saw the value of sharing talents and contacts to help each other. I feel that the contributions of designers to internationalism and world peace are the true goals which launched the TDC/GDC in the first place and that the path ahead is both inspiring and achievable. > Frank Davies FGDC Society of Société des 4 Graphic Designers of Canada designers graphiques du Canada and FGDC Live music accompanied David Coates, you make GDC Founding member, Robert Peters company get their hands dirty celebrating our profes- roots. sion’s Photos: Oliver Oike and Karla Burr > the Saskatchewan North GDC@50 celebration. > the best tasting stamps!

Here are some brief reports on some of the activities, followed by in depth features on the Graphex’06 Awards, the GDC@50 stamp, and the 50 years of Designing Canada annual report. > Saskatchewan North On April 22, 2006, the Saskatchewan North Chapter marked the occasion of the GDC’s fiftieth anniversary with a presen- tation of the Graphex’06 National Design Awards and the GDC Fellows 50 Years of Design in Canada poster exhibitions.
