Canada

I would consider myself French Canadian. My great grandma was born in Canada, moved to South Africa where she had my grandmother and then many years later moved back to Canada. Once my grandmother was old enough, she moved to New York where she met my grandfather and they lived here for several years. About ten years ago, my grandmother moved back to Canada to take care of her mother and she has lived their ever since. I had gone to visit her in Vancouver Island a few times and I was blown away by how beautiful the place was. I loved all entire atmosphere of the place. And I noticed that in Vancouver they were really racial and ethnically diverse. I saw almost every race and ethnicity that you could think of. Even on the island, on me grandma's street there were several children my age of all different backgrounds. I don't have that kind of exposure here in Fredonia. So, to me, I think Canada is much more diverse and I wish that I saw that more in our country.
