[00:00.00]Canada’s becoming a nation

[00:02.06]was not an easy road.

[00:04.25]Canada’s remaining a nation

[00:06.44]has perhaps been

[00:07.96]an even harder road.

[00:09.61]There were many challenges

[00:11.14]facing it over the first

[00:12.89]one hundred or more years. 

[00:14.75]The most serious challenge has been,

[00:17.82]and still is, staying

[00:19.45]together as a country.

[00:21.31]Relations between French speaking

[00:24.49]and English speaking Canada

[00:25.91]have been difficult to improve.

[00:28.75]This persistent 1 theme in

[00:31.05]Canadian history began with

[00:32.80]the defeat of New France

[00:34.33]by Britain during the Seven Years

[00:36.52]War from 1756 to 1763

[00:38.82](or the FrenchIndian War,

[00:43.31]as it was known in North America).

[00:45.38]In the last twenty years, referenda

[00:49.65] held in Quebec for possible separation

[00:51.73]from Canada, were narrowly defeated.

[00:54.24]This challenge still lies ahead.

[00:57.52]So far, the country has

[01:00.48]remained strong, and has

[01:02.67]traditionally played a significant role

[01:04.96]in international affairs.

[01:07.81]Canada has much promise

[01:09.67]for the 21st century.

[01:11.97]It will need to find

[01:14.26]creative diplomatic strategies

[01:15.80]to keep the internal rumblings

[01:17.98]beneath the surface from exploding

[01:20.28]into selfdestruction.

[01:23.12]It will need to find a way

[01:24.99]to fulfill 2 the dreams of

[01:26.63]“the Fathers of Confederation”

[01:29.15]of so many years ago.

[01:31.88]A good guess is that

[01:34.07]the odds 3 are in favor

[01:35.71]of Canada achieving those dreams

[01:37.57]and truly becoming the nation

[01:39.54]that was originally intended
