Canada is a great country, with a rich history and heritage. It is a country full of creative and talented people, who generate $46 billion a year and over 630,000 jobs! With that kind of impact, supporting Canadian culture is supporting Canada's economy.

Each section of this site offers a window into our country's accomplishments in a wide range of areas such as our visual and musical arts, our history and values, our linguistic duality, and our athletic achievements.  You'll learn that in 2010 alone, well over 10 million people attended an arts or cultural festival, the equivalent of 1 in 3 Canadians! And, how every year thousands of artists, athletes and organizations are supported by the Government of Canada in their drive for success - chance are you've met one of them.
