“There is no such thing as a model or an ideal Canadian,” (Pierre Trudeau). Although Canada, as a nation, states that they have certain values that are followed by everyone, it is difficult to live perfectly by them due to human nature and differences. Canada does have core values though, of peace, health care and equality. Peace is a preeminent Canadian value and it is written all over the country’s history. From the beginning of the formation of Canada, people who deem themselves Canadian’s…

Founded by settler two settler societies, Canada has been built on a foundation on cultural an ethnic diversity. Today, Canada has certainly become a nation of immigrants, but prior to the European colonization of Canada, a predominately homogenous ethnic group occupied Canada, the Aboriginals (or First Nations Peoples).

Multiculturalism is another huge factor which changed Canada and became part of its identity. Multiculturalism can be referred to as, “ an ideological aspiration celebrating diversity”(Hyman, Meinhard & Shields, 2011, pg.3). Globalization played a huge role in establishing Canada as a sovereign multicultural state. Canada can be considered to be cultural mosaic as it is home to variety of cultures and religions from across the globe. However, colonization of Canada resulted in formation of a…

In 2015 the Liberals engineered one of the greatest political comebacks of a generation going from thirty-four seats in parliament to a stunning one hundred and eight four, despite the fact they were trailing in third place when the campaign began (Andrew-Gee, 2015). A victory of this margin deserves to be analyzed if for the mere fact that the Liberal Party will use the victory as a mandate to enact their agenda. This paper will argue that the Liberal Party’s victory was the result of a adept…
