“Canada has become a post-national, multicultural society. It contains the globe within its borders, and Canadians have learned that their two international languages and their diversity are a comparative advantage and a source of continuing creativity and innovation. Canadians are, by virtue of history and necessity, open to the world.” -the Right Honourable Jean Chretien, Prime Minister of Canada, June 2000

I give props to Jean Chretien. He did know what he was talking about, and that does sum up what I believe Canada is about.
Did you read about the new Liberal scandal? I think it’s safe to say they are going to be severely hurt by this scandal.
Yeah, I think it’s never wise to believe that discrimination doesn’t exist. I do think Canada has adapted better than many nations though, and there’s no reason not to promote that, because I think it helps to allow tollerance and understanding in society.
