world's rich heritage.
OTTAWA,
ON, May 21, 2024 /CNW/ - Today, on the
World Day for Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development, we
proudly celebrate the rich diversity of our country's communities.
Canada is a mosaic of cultures,
traditions and languages, which contribute in unique ways to the
vitality of our dynamic society.
This day reminds us of the importance of not just acknowledging
diversity but celebrating it! Through our work as a government, we
are strengthening bonds between communities, encouraging mutual
understanding, and building a more harmonious society.
As Minister of Diversity, Inclusion, and Persons with
Disabilities, I am committed to championing the values of
inclusivity, respect and intercultural understanding. Our
government knows that diversity is not simply a concept but a
fundamental part of our country's identity.
I encourage everyone in Canada to learn more about the World Day for
Cultural Diversity for Dialogue and Development, and to renew their
commitment to creating an inclusive and welcoming society that
celebrates differences.
