How is multiculturalism viewed in Canada?

  1. As a challenge to be overcome

  2. As an unofficial policy

  3. As a fundamental characteristic of the Canadian heritage

  4. As a recent development

The correct answer is: As a fundamental characteristic of the Canadian heritage

In Canada, multiculturalism is viewed as a fundamental characteristic of the Canadian heritage. This means that it is not seen as a challenge to be overcome, as represented in option A, but rather as a way of life and a celebration of diversity. Option B is incorrect as multiculturalism is not an unofficial policy in Canada, but an official framework recognized by the government. Option D is also incorrect as multiculturalism has been an important aspect of Canadian society for decades, not a recent development.
