rowing up in a small Canadian town - within an hour of our country’s capital (Ottawa, NOT Toronto btw) we didn’t have much diversity. I can count on one hand the number of non-white kids I went to school with and everyone spoke English. Now, I’m raising my kids in the same town. They are taught in both official languages as soon as they start school (by choice), they have friends who are from different cultures, with different colours of skin and religions. They learn acceptance. They go to catholic school but when they are in higher grades they will be taught about world religion. I I now work with many immigrants and first generation Canadians. Some celebrate different holidays and most have accents. Not once have I ever had their religions or “ways” imposed on me. They are respectful of Canadian culture and are quite interested to learn more about it....and we as Canadians show them the same respect. They are still proud of their culture. We learn from each other and honestly not having the diversity as a child, I really enjoy getting to know more about other parts of the world now. I’m proud to live in a country that is welcoming to others. To me, immigration IS a part of our culture. I don’t know many Canadians who can trace their ancestry back to just Canada. For the most part we all have British, Irish, German, Italian, French, and so on, ancestry.
