The Lap Lambert Academic Publishing The Ideas of Multicultural Education in Canada Paperback

It is shown how Canadian education destroys the narrative that people from different cultures cannot live alongside each other in peace and prosperity. Multicultural education tries to create an aware citizen with a global view of life, one who will promote an appreciation for cultural diversity, social equality, racial harmony, and national cohesiveness. It also assumes that the ways in which students learn and think are deeply influenced by their cultural identity and heritage. It is proved that multicultural education will be more successful if it is based on principles of multiculturalism, multicultural awareness and the fundamental skills needed for living in a multicultural world.
