Multiculturalism Day -Canada DayTwo great opportunities to celebrate Canada’s rich diversity and toand appreciate the jewel we live in . There are not many countriesin the world that are as peaceful as Canada. We have our issues butCanadians are not prone to extremes. We, at best, accept each othercultural peculiarities and at worst we tolerate all of it. There are those who are intent on changing our landscape byimporting their political battles on the homefront but Canadiansmust stand strong and we should all stand firm for peace, unity anddiversity. I could not imagine living in monocultural society. I remember when my children went to Korea to visit their dad,they said it was a nice country but did not like it that much becauseof its lack of diversity. Diversity adds colour, contrast and promotescuriosity and life is more unpredictably fun and it fosters healthycuriosity and inter-racial bondings of all kinds. Let us all keep up the good work of making this country even betterthan it is. Here’s a look at what our volunteers saw Multiculturalism Day.Not even the rain could not stop the shows.
