As a country built by immigrants,
Canada embraces both multiculturalism and bilingualism. The
combination of European, Asian, Middle Eastern and Latin
populations has created a vibrant and continuously-evolving
cultural scene shaped by many original musical, literary and
artistic achievements.
A rich cultural
heritage
In addition to top-calibre museums, dance troops, theatre
companies and festivals that reflect the unique personality of each
province and each city, Canada has also been blessed with
recognition on the international scene.
The city of Montréal alone has seen the birth of the Just for
Laughs Comedy Festival, the International Jazz Festival, and the
amazing Cirque du Soleil. It also hosts North America's only F1
race! While Ontario can boast the Toronto International Film
Festival, the National Ballet of Canada and the Stratford Festival
of Canada.
