Where as Multiculturalism is a sense of identity under different banners: as culture, religion, heritage, ethnicity within the frame work of Canada. The Government of Canada is committed to reaching out to Canadians and newcomers and is developing lasting relationships with ethnic and religious communities in Canada. It encourages these communities to participate fully in society by enhancing their level of economic, social, and cultural integration, Zubair added.” As noted by Eric Wen, the event organizer. “We are celebrating this event to symbolize the spirit of multiculturalism in celebration of Canada. “We have acquired a central location Square One Older Adult Centre at 100 City Centre Drive in Mississauga where cultural performances from Chinese, Indian, Pakistan, Tamil, and Philippines will be featured to show the glimpse of Canadian identity.
