In essence, the main idea that he depicts in the article is that Canada is lacking a distinct Canadian identity, but what makes us Canadian is that we are made up of a wide variety cultures that came from other countries, and we pride ourselves in that concept. While some could argue that Canada has several inspirations that are especially Canadian, such as hockey and maple syrup, this alone is not enough to establish an identity that it can call it’s own. So, as a result, Macgregor argues…

    For years throughout history, women have been under recognized in many fields. Collectively we only gained the right to vote 1916 and still women were under appreciated. There have been an abundance of inspirational females who have played a pivotal role in developing Canadian history and thus far have been overlooked. Also, it is challenging to understand the reason for very few women being represented on our currency and yet it is true because gender has dictated the rate at which we recognize and measure people’s achievements and contributions to society and helping improve the lives of others. Another field in which women are underrepresented in is politics and high earning jobs, although the number of women in the workforce has been increasing…
