加拿大—多元化的国度

加拿大如同一朵盛开的花儿，绽放出惊人的美丽与丰富，深受那些喜欢其多元化的人们的青睐。这是一个幅员辽阔、景色宜人的国家，从大西洋绵延至太平洋。这也是世界上民族最为多元化的国家之一，有其独特的文化。

组成加拿大的十个省份和三个地区在地理风貌上有很大的差异。太平洋海岸向东耸立着巍峨的落基山脉，这里有高耸的山峰和被冰川与水流侵蚀而成的深谷。古老的冰川缓缓移动，向陆地靠近。种类繁多的野生动物在偏远的森林中漫步。国家公园的建立使得很多这样美丽的地方成为供公众游玩和欣赏的保护区，如班夫国家公园和贾斯珀国家公园。加拿大真正独特的一处景点是雄伟壮阔的尼亚加拉瀑布。水流从瀑布边缘倾泻而下，景色壮观，水声轰鸣。

除了其地理环境的多元化，加拿大的许多农村地区和城市中心还体现了其居民的多元化。加拿大最早期的一些移民被认为是土著民族的祖先，从现称作西伯利亚的地方经由大陆桥穿越白令海峡而来。数千年前，他们在这片辽阔的土地上定居。数百年前，第一批欧洲人也开始在加拿大东部的一些省份定居。今天，加拿大反映了各种民族背景的广泛融合。加拿大人口中大约有五分之一是在外国出生的。例如，主要的族群包括英格兰人、苏格兰人和法国人，而少数族裔包括来自新加坡和太平洋岛屿的居民。

种族多元化相应地导致文化多元化。如果你发现自己置身于其中一种亚文化中，那么(它的)语言、饮食、建筑、艺术和音乐会说明你邂逅的是何种文化。例如，在温哥华这个活力四射的城市，加拿大华人的比例全国最高，你可以参加中国新年的庆祝活动，也可以到中山公园喝喝茶。在蒙特利尔，世界最大的讲法语的城市之一，你可以品尝具有典型法式风味的美食，还可以观赏原汁原味的法式风格建筑。最后，如果你想独辟蹊径的话，可以去新斯科舍省的布雷顿角岛玩玩。在岛上你可以随着小提琴的曲调翩翩起舞，领略凯尔特移民的文化和传统。当你接触到不同的文化时，你可能会产生穿越时空之感。鉴于这些文化差异，加拿大自 2002 年以来就一直在庆祝多元文化日也就不足为奇了。

从巍峨山峰到森林深处，再到城市中心，加拿大的地理奇观、种族群体及其文化使之成为独特的居住和旅游胜地。的确，加拿大一直被联合国列为最宜居的国家之一,一直欢迎游客的到来!
