Many Canadians pride themselves on the nation’s successful multicultural norms, but for much of Canadian history immigrants were coerced into accepting the prevailing cultural norms. This course, while acknowledging the predominant “British” character of the majority of immigrants until the mid-20th century, concentrates on groups that brought different cultural traditions to Canada, how they fared, and what they contributed to the Canadian identity.
