From the Paper:

"The democracy that has prevailed for years in Canada has built up confidence in the people living there. This includes those individuals who have been born and bred there, and also those who have settled there (Daubney, 30). Since Canada is a land where many have wanted to settle in because of its multicultural society coupled by democracy that guarantees safety, there have been many individuals who have traveled there in order to lead better lives. However, it is said that things have changed in certain areas on Canada (Veness, 212)."
