Abstract

Canada is widely regarded as a successful example of a multicultural society. In this thesis the questions are answered what Canadian multiculturalism really is and why Canada in times of multicultural turmoil succeeds in welcoming high numbers of immigrants and smoothly integrating them in society. This topic is approached from a social constructivist angle, positioning the Canadian society as the constructor of Canadian multiculturalism. This asks for Canadian multiculturalism not only to explained through theory, but as well through the specific societal and political characteristics of Canada.
