The examination of the subsequent implementation of that policy between 1971 and 1988 explores some of the underlying assumptions that have facilitated Canada's unique policy of multiculturalism within a bilingu- al framework. Às well, the examination of the implementation process provides sufficient evidence to substantiate the argument that, although the concept of multiculturalism ought to be part of the Canadian identity in view of immi- gration trends, the policy of multiculturalism has been a Iargely symbolic policy which has remained on the fringe of government agendas. 1V ACKNOT{LEDGEMENTS The author gratefurly acknowledges prof.

The Act has been described as unique and unprecedented in the world. The whole concept of multiculturalism is rather unique and unprecedented. How- ever, due to technological advances that have enabled more proximity of the world's different regions, the reality of multiculturalism in nation states is increasing. In the Canadian context, the concept of multiculturalism was first made government policy under the then Liberal Prime Minister Pierre EIIiot Trudeau. On October 8, 1971, Prime Minister Trudeau announced Canada's multiculturalism policy in the House of Commons: It was the view of the royal commission, shared by the government, and I am sure, by all Canadians, that there cannot be one cultural policy for Cana- dians of British and French origin, another for the original peoples and yet a third for all oth- ers.

  • Legislating Multiculturalism and Nationhood: the 1988 Canadian Multiculturalism Act
    Legislating Multiculturalism and Nationhood: The 1988 Canadian Multiculturalism Act VARUN UBEROI Brunel University Prominent scholars discuss the Canadian policy of multiculturalism (Kymlicka, 2012: 10; Modood, 2013: 163; Taylor, 2015: 336). But we have little historical knowledge about this policy beyond why it was intro- duced in 1971 (Joshee, 1995; Temlini, 2007) and later bolstered by a clause in the 1982 Charter of Rights and Freedoms (Uberoi, 2009). Hence, we know little, for example, about the reasons, calculations and strategies that were used in the 1980s to increase funding for this policy and to give this policy its own federal department (Abu-Laban, 1999: 471; Karim, 2002: 453). In this article I will try to increase our historical know- ledge of this policy. I use new archival and elite interview data to show how the legislation that enshrined this policy of multiculturalism in law in 1988, the Canadian Multiculturalism Act, came into existence. In addition to enshrining this policy in law, the act is significant in at least three ways. First, the act altered the policy of multiculturalism by empowering it to encourage all federal departments to reflect Canada’s ethnic diversity among its staff and to promote respect for this diversity too. Second, the act increased oversight of the policy as it compels the Acknowledgments: I am grateful to Desmond King and Will Kymlicka for their comments on a very early draft of this piece and to Alexandra Dobrowolsky, Matthew James, Tariq Modood, Nasar Meer, Bhikhu Parekh and Elise Uberoi for their comments on later drafts. I am grateful to Solange Lefebvre for her help with the French abstract.
