in Canada
Canada has a long history of cultural diversity, with Indigenous peoples and
immigrants from various parts of the world living together on Canadian soil for
centuries. However, the formal recognition of multiculturalism as a policy and value in
Canada can be traced back to the 1960s and 1970s.In 1963, the Royal Commission
on Bilingualism and Biculturalism was established to examine the linguistic and
cultural differences between English and French Canadians. The commission's final
report, released in 1969, recommended the recognition of Canada as a bilingual and
