"We are a young country and it will be many, many decades before something definable as 'Canadian culture' can be said to exist"
~~
Of course Canada has a culture. Canada's culture simply evolves...
eg. July 1, 1887 Dominion of Canada -->Canada.
"The patriation battle of 1980-81 originated in the failings of a half century of domestic diplomacy, and unexpected second chance offered to Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau when the Liberal Party was swept back to power in February 1980. Canadian governments had been trying and failing to agree on a way of patriating and reforming the country's original Constitution, the British North America Act, since the 1920s. Six decades later, constitutional reform became one of several major Liberal initiatives and the federal govt's immediate response to the ongoing Québec referendum campaign. "

Canada has a long & interesting history . . . many Canadians no longer with us have contributed to both the Character & Culture of Canada for hundreds of years.
