Growing Up Among Strangers examines the duality of growing up in Canada's cultural mosaic. Several young Canadians from diverse cultural backgrounds talk about their struggles to balance two worlds—the traditional, cultural values of home and the westernized culture that lies outside. Their stories are combined with comments from Canadians of earlier generations who understand this dilemma very well—author Wayson Choy (The Jade Peony), Zarqa Nawaz, creator of Little Mosque on the Prairie and YTV host Carlos Bustamante. This combination of current anecdotes and memories upon reflection shed light on the difficulties and benefits of living in two different cultures while remaining true to one's self.
