Unity in Diversity

Diversity is what makes Canada the strong nation it is today. This was recognised by the popular 15^th Governor General of Canada, John Buchan, first Baron Tweedsmuir, who stated that immigrants to Canada “should retain their individuality and each make its contribution to the national character.” He also said that immigrant groups should learn “from the other, and… while they cherish their own special loyalties and traditions, they cherish not less that new loyalty and tradition which springs from their union.”
