The definition of cultural diversity is built from a set of traditions based on kindness, efficiency and logic that have evolved over time.
This definition gives you a structure in which to operate. Think of it as Canadian rules of the game. Would you play hockey or football without knowing the rules? Would you socialize without any social skills? And even if you would, do you thing you'd be very welcomed?
A French-speaking society in North America, Québec is deeply attached to its roots and to its culture. Québec benefits from traditions and from a culture of its own that reflect its history, its population and its reality.
Québec's culture is the very symbol of its identity. Québécois join their French roots together with their Amerindian heritage and are influenced by their proximity to the United States and by the multi-ethnic population that now shapes their demographic profile.
