I rememebr in Brampton they had this festival in the summer called CARABRAM..they have different venues and each one is hosted by organizations representing various countries around the world.    Anyway, they asked my dad to come dressed in his mariachi suit to represent Mexico for the poster shoot they were gonna use for promotion. My dad told me he saw so many different costumes from around the world...then saw this guy in jeans, a white t-shirt and cowboy boots. My dad thought he was just hanging out...but he ended up in the poster representing Canada!!..lol
   I personally think the natives are who truly represent Canada...


I don't believe 4% of the population can truly represent anything in any country.

Canada is much more than that.


That's an interesting view. Cause you can then use that argument with any North or South American country.

Veerrry interesting.

Of course.

After 500 years of european, african and asian presence in this continent who is truly "native"?

We put ourselves on a slippery slope when we give certificates of "canadianness" to any one group.

Canadian Food??

Bacon, maple syrup and....

Gingerale.

Motts clamato...Canadians make the best Ceasars

I would think that in Canada we certainly have more options for ethnic foods than any other country.  Dont you think?

Found this on Wikipedia:

Canadian cuisine varies widely from region to region. Generally, the traditional cuisine of English Canada is closely related to British and American cuisine, while the traditional cuisine of Québec and French Canada has evolved from French cuisine and the winter provisions of fur traders.

The cuisine of the western provinces is heavily influenced by German, Ukrainian, Polish, and Scandinavian cuisine. Noteworthy is the cuisine of the Dukhabors: prairie-dwelling, Russian-descended vegetarians. Chinese Canadian cuisine is also widespread across the West.

The traditional cuisine of The Arctic and the Canadian Territories is based on wild game and Inuit and First Nations cooking methods. Newfoundland and Maritime cuisine derives mainly from British and Irish cooking, with a preference for salt-cured fish, beef, and pork. British Columbia also maintains British cuisine traditions.

Is it with mashed potatoes on top, corn or peas under, and ground beef at the bottom?  If so it's shepherd's pie.
