Is there a lot of diversity? Are people in Canada accepting of differences?
When we asked people about diversity in Canada and whether locals are accepting of differences, they said...
"Toronto is very very multicultural. We are also accepting. We have one of the largest Gay Pride Days and Caribana outside of the Carribeans," remarked another expat who made the move to Toronto, Canada.
"Canada is a culturally diverse nation that prides itself on its inclusivity and acceptance of differences. In Canada, people from all walks of life, regardless of race, ethnicity, religious beliefs, sexual orientation, gender identity/expression, and other distinctions, are welcome and encouraged to participate in all aspects of Canadian life. Canada’s diverse population is actively encouraged to bring their cultural and individual strengths to the country’s social, economic and cultural spheres. Canadians are generally accepting of differences, and have in place many laws, policies and programs that promote the acceptance of diverse perspectives," explained one expat living in Canada.
