Canada, the second-largest country in the world, is also known as 'The Great White North. However, the country is
also known for its multiculturalism which has historical roots of settlement and colonisation. Many racial and ethnic
groups were involved in founding Canada's multicultural society, but Indigenous, French, and British people were
predominant. Even today, multiculturalism is a social fact of Canadian life. Today, diversity in Canada has extended
beyond race and ethnicity, and it spans across religious affiliations, language, gender, sexual orientation,
abilities, and economic status.
For international students, especially students from South East Asia, it's quite easy to adapt to the
multiculturalism of Canada. However, there are other things where they may have to struggle.
Why Choose Canada?
Academic excellence, skill development, working permits while studying, higher standard of living, safety and
security, and immigration opportunities are a few of the many reasons that students prefer Canada as their
