Didn't they pretty much have the same colour last year too?  =/

[HappyAndHopeful]

I'm really surprised it's not red! It's a nice shade of blue, though.

Yeah not sure why they kept it similar to last year's colour lol but I like this shade of blue!

IT'S NOT RED... SHOOK  

Like it's nice but how is that relevant to 150th anniversary?!

[OldManLogan]

I would have preferred red.

That reveal video gave me BLUE balls man! (zing)

I got really excited because it said something like "we have a very special colour for a very special year" then it shows a blue backpack LOL

Was expecting red tho to be honest.

LOL MAAAN I'm right there with you...

Don't get me wrong it's a beautiful shade of blue, but "Very special colour" blue???

@SunAndMoon is a prophet. All those days counting blue cars led to this.

[trimethoprim]

Hey, at least it's not pink lol

This CMA blue is a perfectly fine colour, guess it was all the expectation for a red and white bag that made it just a little disappointing.

It seems to be fairly vibrant shade of blue, if you look at the Calgary unveiling video (Could also be just an effect of lighting/software.). The colour seems pretty nice on second thought.

I love this blue and black. I was hoping for red and black, but I'm glad it's not the  red and white people were hoping for. Even though it resembles Canada's 150, in my mind, red and white seems very ugly  I just feel the backpacks looks so much better with the black (this year and last year's back pack) than white (previous years).

Yep! I'm just glad it's not neon, which last year's turquoise was bordering on (would take pink over neon any day).

Edit: on hindsight, we probably should've known, they always said #CMA150, not Canada 150, haha. Also, the brief serious interlude in this thread seemed to come true, the backpack isn't red and doesn't celebrate Canada's 150th birthday.

Anyway, looking forward to our own orientation!
