Publisher Description
ABSTRACT/RESUME Although Canada can rightfully claim to have had a multicultural tradition throughout its existence, it should be acknowledged that the beginnings of what we know today as multiculturalism are rooted in the initial discussions regarding bilingualism and biculturalism held during the 1960s. One of the groups most strongly involved in the debate was the Ukrainian-Canadian diaspora, which is taken as an example for the so-called "third force." By examining the Ukrainian contribution to the discussion, we gain insights into some of the fears and ideas of the other ethnic groups.
