∙ 10y agoCanada is divided in many ways. For starters Canada is a Confederation of many Nations, each with many cultures and histories.
Our histories are so different that some historical figures are hero's in some cultures and villains in others.
Our representation in our Federal government varies by region and province creating further divides.
Some ares of Canada contribute much more to Confederation than others, creating further divides.
We are divided on our vision of the future, where Canada should be headed, and thanks to Canada holding on to ancient race based treaties we are also divide by race.
Yes, Canada is very much a divided country but we are making it work, for now.
