Canada is Diverse

In Social Studies, we have been learning about what makes Canada diverse. This assignment shows the importance of diversity within Canada. 

Here is my assignment:

Canada is a diverse nation. The benefits of being different are that when different people are good at different things and when people do different jobs, our community functions. Plus being the same is boring. Diversity can positively impact a community because we get what we need to get done and when other provinces have different resources and you don’t have the same things as them you could trade so everyone gets what they need. And trading can earn you trust and that means you will be in less wars so it’s important that every country has different resources.

We have lots of nature and a city. We have all 4 seasons and we are connected to oceans.  We all have different resources and cultures and there are time changes. Not  all countries have all 4 seasons. People speak different languages depending on where they are from. Two completely different provinces Quebec and BC have lots of differences. One major difference is that Quebec is fluent in French and BC is fluent in English. Another difference is that they have different weather and landscape. Quebec is quite flat and the mountains are spread out, while in BC the mountains are packed together. A final difference is that Quebec is much bigger than BC.

The temperature and weather is different depending on where you are. Different provinces have their own natural resources and habitat. BC has outstanding natural beauty, one of them is a section of the Canadian rocky mountains. This is different to Quebec because Quebec has the St. Lawrence Lowlands. The St. Lawrence Lowlands are a lot of rivers and wetlands near the St. Lawrence River.

In BC one main site is Vancouver with the population of  631,486 people making Vancouver the biggest city in BC. There is also Greenwood with a population of 665 people making Greenwood the smallest city in BC. In Quebec, Montreal is the largest city with a population of 1,762,949 people. A famous landmark in BC is the Lions Gate Bridge. Its outstanding historic buildings include Waterfront Station, Hotel Vancouver and the Marine Buildings. A famous landmark in Quebec is Place Royale. Place Royale  is an original stone plaza where people still meet to this day.

BC and Quebec have different climates. BC has a lot of wind that comes from the Atlantic ocean. BC summers are cool, wet and short. Quebec Has extreme hot and cold weather. Sometimes the weather in Quebec can be very severe.

In BC people are driven by a healthy population and tourism. The service sector plays a ginormous job in the region’s economy. Other important jobs include fishing, farming, construction,  and film and television.

In Quebec, important jobs include retail (clothing stores) and Healthcare.

Canada is a bilingual country. In Quebec, people speak mostly French. People who speak only French are called francophone and in the rest of Canada people mostly speak English. 

That’s why I think Canada is a diverse nation!
