Document Summary
The question that are you being lied to with the cultural experience. Ethnic on-plays: you wont get the real cultural food in a food court . Ted talk video; how chinese food is represented in different countries and is mixed with other cultural foods. Haka food in toronto : not just a minority food. A group in china forced out and migrated to india. Took their native food from china and became influenced by china town in mumbai . In canada in particular, aboriginal people have certain circumstances to be here. 53% of aboriginals live in urban areas but they are distributed differently. Inaccurate to treat them like another ethnic group. We need to stop thinking of aboriginals as another ethnic group. Aboriginal cultures are incompatible with urban life. Third question evelyn asks : again, it is more complicated to define culture. In canada we don"t have the same resources for resource and therefore there are still uncertenties.
