OverviewA reader for young adults and adults focusing exclusively on Canada - its history, geography, economy, political system, society, and rich diversity of cultures. Students may read about great moments in Canadian history, explore Canada's diverse regions, become familiar with the political system and economy, recognize significant achievements of Canadians, explore Canada's rich cultural diversity, and discuss issues facing Canada today and in the future. Contributions from leading Canadians in politics, the arts, and other aspects of life obtained especially for the book add a personal touch and a wide variety of exercises and communicative activities support the narratives. The final chapter focuses on some of the challenges facing Canada in the future - challenges as varied and intense as Quebec separatism, native land claims, depleted fish stocks, and racism - and should generate in-class discussion.
