The purpose of this book is to analyse and interpret the present state of biculturalism in Canada. It examines the way in which English-speaking and French-speaking Canadians behave toward each other as parts of the same national whole, and the way in which the ideas of one group have been affected by those of the other. The underlying assumption of these studies is that these two groups constitute the foundation of the Canadian nation, and that the behaviour of each can only be understood in the context of its relationship with the other. The basic question raised in these studies is whether there has been communication, adjustment, and co-operation between the two cultural groups, or misunderstanding, friction, and conflict. Inevitability, since Canada has been created on the basis of compromises, the answers do not fall neatly into either category, but partly under both. This book is intended to shed some light on the questions "e;what is Canada?"e; and "e;How much have English-speaking Canadians and French-speaking Canadians contributed to the Canadian whole?"e;Contributors include: G.V. Ferguson, Jean-C. Falardeau, Watson Kirkconnell, Louis-M. Regis, F.R. Scott, Louis Baudouin, Nathan Keyfitz, Jacques Henripin, Phillippe Gargiue, J.H. Dales, Albert Faucher, P.-E.

L'objet de ce volume est d'tudier la coexistence de deux groupes culturels dominants dans le Canada d'aujourd'hui et, plu prcisment, d'observer la manire dont les Canadiens anglais et les Canadiens franais se comportent les uns envers les autres en tant qu'lments d'une mme ensemble national, et la manire dont les attitudes et les idologies des deux groupes se sont rciproquement influences. Le postulat sur lequel reposent ces essais est que ces deux groupes constituent la substance de la nation canadienne. D'autre part, on ne peut comprendre les comportements de chacun que si on les peroit dans la perspective des relations d'un groupe avec l'autre. La proccupation principale a t de dterminer jusqu' quel point, dans  l'histoire rcente de la coexistence canadienne, il y a eu communication, adaptions rciproque, coopration, ou inversement, msentente, friction, conflit, entre les deux groupes. Comme le canada a t le rsultat d'incessants compris, le jugement ne peut pas tre nettement trance. La ralit canadienne a un caractre antinomique. En dfinitive, les deux questions fondamentales que nous tentons d'clairer sont les suivantes : nbsp; Qu'est-ce que le Canada? - Dans quelle mesure les Canadiens anglais et les Canadiens franais ont-ils respectivement contribue a l'dification d'un Canada commun?
