The Cult of Multiculturalism in Canada

Selling Illusions: The Cult of Multiculturalism in Canada
By Neil Bissoondath
1994

Since 1971 Canada has had an official policy of Multiculturalism. Today to question this policy is to be labled bigoted, but question it Bissoondath does, going so far as to say that culture should be left to the individual rather then the government. He makes a compelling argument. Bissoondath, an Indian from Trinidad who considers himself purly Canadian, spares no one in his condemnation of Canada's official Multiculturalism, not the immigrants or the Government, or opponents of official Multiculturalism on the Right including those who wish an American style melting pot. Bissoondath has written an excellent book, one any person interested in government policy should read to get a better understanding on the true effects of a policy flawed from it's inception.
