This encyclopedia provides an overview of people within the geographical and social framework of Canada. Each group entry outlines origins; migration; arrival and settlement; economic life; community life; family and kinship; culture; education; religion; politics; intergroup relations; group maintenance and ethnic commitment; and bibliography. The native peoples, or First Nations, are listed under an entry called Aboriginals which is subdivided into major linguistic groupings. Included are peoples "made" in Canada such as the Acadians, Amish, French Canadians, Metis, and Mormons and groups who no longer exist such as the Basques. World regional identities for Arabs, Caribbean Peoples, and South Asians in Canada are also noted. The Encyclopedia was originally created and published by The Multicultural History Society of Ontario.
