As a country Canada’s strengths included, gaining autonomy through persevering and showing just how mature and ready Canadians were to be in charge of their own army; and be recognized as a separate country from Britain. Another one of Canada’s strengths was how calmly autonomy was achieved after the war. Canada did not need to make a fuss about becoming their own country because it was obvious that they were already ready for that. Their proof was presented in how they planned and executed their battles, and fought alongside Britain to successfully defeat
Canada is known globally for diversity and acceptance of different
This has earned it the reputation of having an open arms. The recent attacks including the 9/11 attacks has led to numerous questions been asked regarding Canada’s policies. Canada has always been one of the rare countries where culture and society have been shaped by immigration. Canada has a vast tract of land without inhabitants hence it has been attributed that this is among the reasons for their lenient policies. Canada’s population has been relatively low over the years hence this led to the desire to expand both population wise and economically.
Canadians are very polite and gentle with others. This defines Canadians as valuable people. When communicating with people, specially with anyone who has trouble speaking or understanding, they always speak in a clear and polite manner, which makes it easier for them to understand. Another unique way
Canada has a little piece of almost every culture in the world, shown through the large amount of people moving to Canada from every continent in the world. The multitude of cultures is displayed through the plethora of festivals held throughout the country every year, such as the Folk Fest, Edmonton Food Festival, Heritage Festival and the International Film Festival, all bringing in various cultures and traditions from around the world. Canada has all of these festivals due to the large amount of immigration that was even shown in Anita Rau Badami’s essay my Canada, when she and her husband had moved from India to Vancouver. Canada is one if not the most desirable countries to immigrate to, not only for the living conditions but because of the ability to keep your culture and not have to assimilate to a “Canadian” culture. Thanks to immigration Canada has become a great model country to look at for cultural diversity and cultural acceptance that any country can look at and try to model in their own
Before World War two, Canadians still felt a tie with Britain, and still felt connected with them. Although, when Canada decided to enter this war by itself, the country showed their independence from Britain. Canada displayed how it can now make its own decision of entering the war, and it didn’t just do what Britain did. Additionally, during the war, Canada made great contributions to the war effort establishing itself as a strong and powerful nation such as the others. Canada had the third largest navy and 4th largest air force.
The standard of living is one of the highest in the world, it welcomes new immigrants, and there are many personal freedoms which are questioned in other parts of the world. Here, there is a Charter of Rights and Freedom that protects our individual rights. This charter, which came to be in 1982, is the basis of our Canadian society. It lays down the law, so that the limitations can be seen. Other countries also have similar documents, but Canada's has some unique qualities.
Canada was powerful and strong enough that it was one of the members to sign the Treaty of Versailles, which lead it in to the league of nations and Canada had become a Virtual independence colony. Towards the end of war Canada introduces taxes, profit taxes and other government services like that for the people still at back home. Another representing moment for Canada when it started producing basic equipment of the modern trench warfare, Canada started getting involved in shipping for countless shells overseas including aircrafts, ships, trucks and other weaponry rolled off the lines. Canadian farmers and miners shipped their products overseas for a good price. Another honorable moment for Canada was when the during the beginning of the world war 2 kings opinion and thought was about keeping Canada along side the British in order to claim victory, it proved that the king knew about the strength and the capabilities of the Canadian men and soldier, an year after fighting along with Britishers Canada spend time with the US resolving the problem, the ties between two nation started getting stronger and hence
This is not true for all Canadians; this video made it seem like Canadians are always happy with the country. “I love this country where I am” was a line sung by many Canadians in the video. This implies that all Canadians are proud. There was also a lot of hockey shown as a patriotic symbol throughout the anthem, but not all Canadians like or care about hockey. b.
There are those who argue that Chinese immigrants often travel to Canada, choosing clear, blue skies rather than grey pollution. Not only is pollution a major factor, but the benefits and the increased rights make Canada the more favourable option. Taking everything into consideration, the differences between these two countries, whether it is their culture, social structure, government or their way of life, is what makes them Canada and China. One must realise that they should be proud of the land that they live in, even if another country seems to be more
The American dream is the chance for equal opportunity of success and prosperity caused by hard work, determination and initiative. It gives chance to overcome social classes and barriers, to enable citizens to become the best they can be only if they want to. However, with America having one of the highest levels of inequality and low equality of opportunity, you are more likely to find this dream within Canada or Europe, making it questionable if it is the American dream after all. Canada is a country that represents a lot of diversity and equality, it provides opportunity to everyone equally, and allows people a second chance at life. Whether it is a second chance after being a criminal, homeless, or a refugee, Canada is the perfect place
To me, being Canadian is to be a kind, accepting person who respects others and their beliefs and nationality. I believe that multiculturalism is a large part of being Canadian as many have immigrated from other countries; someone who doesn't discriminate because others are different. I believe that the vast forests and striking wilderness are symbols of Canada’s uniqueness and one can feel pride through this. We are strong and it can be seen in the recent years as Canada has become more independant and more powerful. Being a Canadian is a privilege to me and I am pleased to call this nation
Immigration has been and will continue to happen all around the world. There are so many reasons for people who come from different countries and ethnicities to move from country to country. The reasons why these people immigrate is either they are simply forced to, due to violence and hostility or that they are in search of a better life for them, and or their family etc. Canada being rated number one in quality of life has been a goal for people wanting to immigrate. The Immigration and Refugee Protection Act ( IRPA) was established by the Canadian government in the year 2002.
Yes, Canada is a welcoming place. I know Canada is a welcoming place because its a multi cultural country where as if you go to India or even China you can not see a lot of people in a different culture also if you take a look in your classroom not a lot of people look like you and that is okay because it doesn’t really matter and Canada is a better place when it is multi cultural. Another reason why Canada is a welcoming place is because Canada has sponsored the most amount of Syrian refugees world wide
Canada offers free education, healthcare and lastly, it is one of the safest and secure countries in the world. Canada is a great place to live in and one of the greatest reasons is that Canada offers free education to kids from kindergarten to Grade 12. Each province does have certain changes in the there education system but throughout Canada, it is mandatory and free of charge to go to school. The Canadian education system only lets qualified teachers with a university degree to teach in classrooms and classrooms (in public schools) are mixed with boys and girls giving both an equal environment to learn. Not
