Almost 50 years ago, Canada became the first country in the world to adopt a multiculturalism policy. Today, multiculturalism and its links to immigration are an integral part of the country’s identity. As they say, diversity is our strength!
That diversity includes the respect and freedom to celebrate our cultural traditions, practise our faiths and share our voices. It also ensures we have the right to stand up and speak out if our rights are infringed upon.
We must also recognize that Canada is not perfect. We still have a lot of work to do when it comes to Indigenous reconciliation and overcoming systemic racism. While celebrating Canadian multiculturalism , let’s listen to each other, respect one another, embrace our diversity and move forward together as Canadians.
