With all respect, I do think that both Prime Minister Pearson...the best Prime Minister this country ever had....and Pierre Trudeau were in favor of recognizing the dual nature of Canada's european heritage and history....ie English Canada and French Canada....both recognized in the BNA Act and our eventual Constitution...but were also in favor of a policy of multiculuralism regarding all national groups in Canada. Multi-culturism is why Canada is considered a mosaic whereas the United States is a melting pot.
