Really, it’s only been since the ’70s that Canadians have had any pride in their country.
Canadians would not tolerate it if they really knew there was a whole generation of aboriginal Canadians who have a chance at a better education and are being denied it.
Canadians are known for having a social conscience, and so our political leaders need to do more to uphold that reputation on the international stage.
I think Canadians are more interested in international events than Americans because it is such a small country, so politics affect it more.
I don’t care much for Canadians.
Canadians tend to be a bit more religious than most Europeans – though not more than the Poles or Ukrainians. Most important, their attitude to immigration and ethnic minorities is more positive than that of most Europeans.
The Liberal party has always worked with multiple parties in the House to make sure we’re being governed in the best interest of Canadians.
Conservatives need to show Canadians our positive vision and why Conservatives believe what we believe.
My mom’s father came from a family of 11 children who came over from the island of Ischia, Italy, and settled in Providence, RI. Her mother was part of the large community of French-speaking Canadians who settled in Woonsocket, RI.
Canadians are a compassionate people and we should be. But at what cost?
I would also argue… that we are, by inclination and in terms of our history, we are small ‘l’ liberals, we Canadians.
We need to make sure that everyone’s pulling their weight and doing their fair share. Canadians get that, including the wealthy Canadians I talk to.
Oh, I think Canadians look like all sorts of people. That’s the beauty of Canada.
Yet another thing Canadians and Europeans have in common is an obsession with the United States, and with distinguishing themselves from it, often by crude stereotyping.
We Canadians are not given as a people to great patriotic displays.
