Immigrants

  • Canadian culture is a mixture of multiple cultures. There isn´t really a Canadian culture like a French culture or Spanish culture (or most European or Asian cultures) as Canada is very new and majority of the population are only 2nd or 3rd generation. That being said, English is the language spoken, hockey is a favorite past time as is skiing and hiking. We are very polite and believe in human rights for all. We, or at least, I enjoy the fact that I hear and see different languages and restaruants from around the world and get to learn about different holidays and cultures as well. Quebec culture is influenced more by France rather than England, as is the majority of the rest of Canada. I believe that since France, along with England, were our founders, we should all be able to speak French fluently (when in reality, we don´t), whereas in Quebec, they feel as though English and Anglicization is forced upon them.

    Just my thoughts, from a loving Canadian
