Diversity is at the very heart of Canadian history. Many different people coexisted all across this vast land for thousands of years, and there was an abundance of communities, ethnic groups, cultures and languages that we cannot even imagine. Tragically, colonization almost made this diversity completely disappear, but what has survived is still an incredible resource. We should all learn more about and be part of the efforts being made by the First Nations, Inuit and Métis to preserve this treasure, this essential, but perishable, asset.
