Identity is the values and characteristics that define a person. My Canadian identity consists of three main factors: respect for the sacrifices my family and others have made for our country; gratitude for the values of Canada and the unity within our country and throughout the world; and pride in Canada’s accomplishments. Canada’s historical events have had the greatest influence on my identity, specifically the World Wars and the Halifax explosion.
I chose this question because growing up I had heard stories of my family's participation in the World Wars.
I chose this question because this is my first year residing in Canada and I am curious about my new identity.
J'ai choisi cette question puisque je suis fière d'être Canadienne et de ce que mon pays a pu accomplir dans les dernières 150 années.
