"Many elements make up the distinctive Canadian heritage - landscape of varied beauty and fertility, a people molded from several racial stocks, skills developed through the generations, faiths that live in tolerance together. Subtly, this picture conveys how Canadians have developed, from these things, their own character and way of living."
