Identity is the values and characteristics that define a person. My Canadian identity consists of three main factors: respect for the sacrifices my family and others have made for our country; gratitude for the values of Canada and the unity within our country and throughout the world; and pride in Canada’s accomplishments. Canada’s historical events have had the greatest influence on my identity, specifically the World Wars and the Halifax explosion.
I chose this question because growing up I had heard stories of my family's participation in the World Wars.
J'ai choisi cette question car je trouve que chaque identité canadienne est unique et vaut la peine qu'on en parle.
I chose this question because I felt passionate to write about what moments in Canadian history make me who I am today.
