Canada Post has issued an eight-cent
stamp, as part of its multicultural series,
to commemorate the hundredth birthday of Gugliemo Marconi, the father of radio.
Marconi chose Signal Hill
in St. John's, Newfoundland, as the site for the first transatlantic
wireless receiver in 1901.

8 cents destiné à rendre hommage à Guglielmo Marconi,
à l'occasion du centième anniversaire de sa
naissance.
Marconi installa son
premier appareil récepteur sans fil, à TerreNeuve,
en 1901.
