and festivals, and even new sports to play in Canada. Not only does multiculturalism create more diverse societies, it builds unity too (Bloemraad). In addition to multiculturalism, Canada’s democratic system of government compels me to be more appreciative that I am Canadian. I am proud that Canada represents democracy.
Democracy gives citizens the right to create decisions that affect them, including the right to vote for a member of each level of the government. Moreover, democracy is prominently based on equality, public will and the public opinion (Gupta). I am proud that Canadians have a democratic system of government since the fundamental political power is settled within the citizens. Furthermore, it is more efficient, stable and firm to have this system of government since the representatives are obligated to serve the people and their needs (Gupta). Last but not least, the healthcare system is another feature that makes me proud of being a Canadian. The majority of citizens love Canada’s healthcare system (Nader). Additionally Canada holds the 30th position for the country with the most outstanding health care ("World Health…"). Canada has 15 different healthcare systems to ensure its people are treated to be healthy and strong (Nader). Also, its systems provide healthcare coverage for Canadian citizens for their entire life. From the minute, an individual is born in Canada he/she is covered for health care (Nader). Canada’s healthcare systems put the people first not the profits. To conclude, I ranked Canada’s health care, democratic system of government and multiculturalism really high because they have become symbols that have defined Canada and as a Canadian, I am proud to have these symbols represent such a strong and native
land.
