"Why is it important to have a greater understanding of how Aboriginal Canadians and New Canadians engage in civic life and what their values are? Given current demographic trends, these groups are and will continue to be increasingly important players in the way Canada is growing and changing.
Encouraging the next generation of Canadians to take on leadership roles in this country is a challenge for decision-makers who eventually must “pass the torch”. However, the special experiences and values of Aboriginal and new Canadians mean that different methods of engagement must be found. Canada’s ability to encourage Canadians of increasingly varied backgrounds to take an active role in shaping civil society will be a determining factor in the country’s future success."
