Regionalism in Canada refers to the distinct identities, cultures, and interests that exist within different regions of the country. It acknowledges the unique characteristics and perspectives that arise from the geographical, historical, and socio-economic differences among the provinces and territories.
While regionalism highlights the diversity and unique characteristics of different regions, Canada as a whole values its unity and the idea of being a diverse and inclusive nation. The federal government works to strike a balance between recognizing regional differences and promoting a sense of national identity and cohesion.
