    About this ebook

    "Canadian? Me?" is for anyone who wants to celebrate the experience of living in this land.

    Want to put some meaning into the holidays? Want to feel included rather than excluded? "Canadian? Me?" is for you!

    In a pageant-style meant to capture the spirit of Being Canadian, the book presents a model for shared celebration times and "reasons for the seasons".

    This book is written in response to those who would focus on our differences to the point of turning diversity into divisiveness. This book focuses on what can bring us together.

    "Canadian? Me?" is for anyone who experiences Canada - its spectacular geography, its contrasts and challenges, its rich and complex history, its diversity of people and yes, even its weather, and says "Yes! I am Canadian!".
