"No single ethnic group accounts for the majority of the Canadian people. This should be recognized as a fact of enormous significance."
--Frank McGilly, author and professor, McGill University, 1990

"In the morning I go to the Korean dépanneur to buy Le Devoir and The Gazette. Then I go to get my fresh chala at the European Kosher Bakery and say bonjour to my Greek neighbour. This may not be your Canada, but it is my neighbourhood. And my neighbourhood is my country."
--David Homel, novelist, essayist, translator and journalist, 1996
