Canada has never been a melting pot; more like a tossed sala

Summary

This quote suggests that Canadaâ€™s multiculturalism is not based on assimilation, but rather on the idea of different cultures coexisting and contributing to the overall diversity of the nation. Unlike a melting pot, where various cultures blend together to form a homogenous outcome, Canada embraces and celebrates its multicultural identity, allowing each culture to retain its unique characteristics and flavors, much like the ingredients in a tossed salad. This metaphor emphasizes the importance of diversity, acceptance, and unity within Canadian society.

Each home has been reduced to the bare essentials -- to bare

Each home has been reduced to the bare essentials -- to barer essentials than most primitive people would consider possible. Only one woman's hands to feed the baby, answer the telephone, turn off the gas under the pot that is boiling over, soothe the older child who has broken a toy, and open both doors at once. She is a nutritionist, a child psychologist, an engineer, a production manager, an expert buyer, all in one. Her husband sees her as free to plan her own time, and envies her; she sees him as having regular hours and envies him.
