Canadian identity and culture drive innovation, economic growth and national pride. By supporting community initiatives that celebrate our cultural diversity, bring people together, and create spaces to share our diverse stories, heritage and traditions, we strengthen the bonds that unite us and build a Canada where everyone belongs.
