Proactive Measures: Canadian Identity and Live-and-Let-Live Model

proactive measures: Prime Minister Justin Trudeau sees cultural diversity as one of the great strengths of modern-day Canada, according to Toronto Star. From his perspective, the Canadian identity is a fluid work in progress, not a static feature in need of proactive measures to ensure its preservation. By Chantal Hébert National Affairs Columnist Tues., Oct. 18, 2016 OTTAWA—Here is a much abbreviated list of the current and former Canadian politicians who believe that when it comes to cultural diversity, Canada should be exporting its live-and-let-live model, not looking for inspiration from countries such as France that have put in place coercive measures to affirm their national identity. He thinks of it as a living tree, not a dried flower stuck between two pages of history. On that basis, Trudeau abhors, among other coercive measures, the notion of submitting prospective immigrants to a cultural correctness test. The prime minister is convinced that Canada cultural diversity enriches and renews its fabric. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
