Abstract

Canadians that live in the country's larger cities are aware of the growing cultural and ethnic diversity that is characterizing our cities. Canada has an aggressive goal of growing its population through immigrants, so this diversity is only going to increase throughout the years. This growing diversity in the country highlights the effectiveness of Canada's multiculturalism policies. How well is Canada living up to its multicultural policies? This essay will examine multiculturalism in Canada with an emphasis on multiculturalism in education. This will show that education in Canada needs to be given a new approach, one that highlights to need to build on the strengths of diversity and not on trying to achieve the unitary student.

Because of the diverse composition of schools, education and multiculturalism are very much linked, and an examination of how multiculturalism works in education can highlight how well Canada's broader policies of multiculturalism are being implemented, and if they are being implemented in the way that they are supposed to.
