Canada Trade Bilateral/Regional Trade AgreementsThe preservation
and promotion of cultural identity is of great importance to Canada
and, in all international trade agreements, our aim is to ensure
that Canada maintains the maximum flexibility to pursue its
domestic cultural policy objectives. To that effect, Canadas
existing bilateral and regional trade negotiations all incorporate
specific provisions with respect to cultural industries in order to
allow us to adapt existing cultural policies and develop new
policies in the future.Multilateral Trade (World Trade
Organization)Multilaterally, while acknowledging the numerous
benefits of comprehensive trade liberalization, Canada's approach
has been to refrain from taking on obligations that would hamper
its ability to pursue domestic cultural policy objectives.
CanadianSociety &CultureCultural DiversityCanada is
culturally diverse. This goes back to the 1890s when it began
inviting people from all over the world to settle in the country to
help it develop and grow. Canadian immigration policy was
historically open, welcoming and egalitarian in its philosophy.
This has also manifest into the psyche of the nation where people
are encouraged and to retain their cultural identities, traditions,
languages and customs.Individuals concerned with the groupCanadians
are generally a tolerant, polite and extremely community-oriented
people. Although they are individualistic in terms of their basic
cultural traits, they nevertheless place a great deal of emphasis
on the individual's responsibility to the community. This is seen
as giving balance and a good quality of life.
