Jane Fonda asserts that "when I'm in Canada, I feel this is what the world should be like". A school hockey tour to Canada is simply a knock-out.
Initial impressions of Canada might be: French & British, wintery, wild and beautiful landscape and proudly independent of the USA. Culturally, these impressions need expansion. Whilst the predominant influences are British and French, there is also a significant indigenous Indian population, with 53 languages spoken other than French and English. Sport, of course, features large in Canada's cultural composition.
