Regina resident Derek Klassen was tired of mowing his lawn, so he built a nine-hole mini golf course in his backyard. The CBC's Peter Mills tests his luck putting for the ParticipACTION 150 Play List. (Peter Mills/CBC)

Many Canadians are getting active to celebrate the country's 150th birthday this year and The Morning Editionis no exception.

I'm on a mission to complete 150 activities set out in the ParticipACTION 150 Play List.

ParticipACTION is a national non-profit organization that created a list of 150 Canadian activities picked by Canadians. People are encouraged to do as many as possible.
