Multiculturalism

As a whole, Canada’s foreign policies are structured carefully to ensure the country’s national security, so long as Canada’s logo of kindness and tolerance lives on. In the face of the rising threat of terrorism in the world, Canada has not experienced any dramatic or physical attack occurring in public. This is majorly due to the well functioning system of Canada’s RCMP and friendly image. On another note, this clearly justifies the prestigious magnitude and significance of withholding…

Australia is a country that has been built on diversity. As a result of this the ecumenical movement have acted as links, connecting Australia to becoming a more secular society, promoting the restoration of the broken unity of Christian denominations (Weigel, 2011). This ecumenism has allowed for a greater understanding and cooperation to some degree as well as a greater sharing and recognition of similarities as indicated in the conference on faith order 1952, “act together in all matters…

recently enjoyed at Rich Mix, which was also the baptism of Varldens Band U.K. Tour, was indeed a smooth show of cultural integration, collaboration and dialogue between traditions. The 13-member ensemble is indeed one of the best synonyms of multiculturalism and living and playing proof that it can harmonically work.

The universalized representations of the Third World as an ahistorical and homogenous space which arise in Western imperialist culture fails to account for the particular histories and situations of non-Western women.

My homeland is the smell of spices, as well as the sensations of civil war. Like most people, I share the same values as my parents. My parents fled a country characterized by war and poverty in search for a better life, and better opportunities for their future children; the so coveted “American Dream”. I was always grateful to grow up in a country where I had the opportunity for education and success, in contradiction to my parents. I wanted nothing more than to make them proud -- to make…

Canada is…
