Did you miss celebrating National Multiculturalism week in June? Starting in 2011 BC will celebrate in the fall...
The Honourable Mary McNeil, Minister of Citizens’ Services and
Minister Responsible for Multiculturalism and the Public Affairs Bureau has announced that
the Province of British Columbia will be proclaiming Multiculturalism Week in the third week of November, each year, starting in November 2011.
"This change is to align the Multiculturalism Week more effectively with activities during the school year. Our goal is to encourage educational initiatives in schools that focus on, and encourage youth to become leaders in multiculturalism and to engage their communities in multiculturalism."
This project is made possible through funding from the
Government of Canada and the Province of British Columbia.
