Title |
Shattering the Monolith: Showcasing the Diversity of Quebec City’s English-speaking Community
|
Abstract |
The author examines how the Morrin Centre, a heritage and culture organization in Quebec City, is shattering preconceived ideas about a monolithic English-speaking community. Three forms of diversity within the community are examined, namely inter-regional, ethnic/cultural, and socio-economic. By integrating this exploration of diversity into its programmes, the Morrin Centre is fostering a more complex sense of identity, belonging, and attachment. The author concludes by examining some of the challenges, which are shared by other official-language minority organizations working on a regional scale.
