CANADIAN IDENTITY TRUTH #3 -
CANADian citizens live in A MULTICULTURAL COUNTRY.
ETHNIC ORIGINS
All citizens of Canada are classified as "Canadians" as defined by Canada's nationality laws. However since 1996 "Canadian" as an ethnic group has been added to census questionnaires for possible ancestry. The majority of respondents to this selection are from the eastern part of the country that was first settled. Virtually all persons who reported “Canadian” in 1996 had English or French as a mother tongue, were born in Canada, and had both parents born inside Canada. This suggests that many of these respondents were people whose families have been in this country for several generations, and no-longer self identify with their ethnic ancestral origins.
