Heritage

 

Indeed, the history of Canada is marked by the convergence of Aboriginal peoples and immigrants from everywhere on earth. It is also the product of a struggle to develop a huge territory - the second largest country in the world. Canada is a nation where key lessons have been, and are still being, learned from cultural diversity.

 

This section is about the path that was followed to make Canada what it is today and the direction it is taking for the future. It is the result of collaboration among key players in Canada’s cultural scene including historical societies, social groups, museums, academic institutions, governments, and many others – an immense resource in the exploration of our history and genealogy, our geography and our people. You will find a wealth of information on all facets of Canadian life presented in the form of pictures, maps, narrative text, as well as multimedia.
