#Canadian Culture
#Canada Symbols
#Canada History
#Canada Day
A discussion-heavy dive into what Canada's symbols really mean — the Great Flag Debate, the beaver's colonial history, Indigenous perspectives, and whether hockey truly unites everyone. Vocabulary gets more advanced (contested, iconography, reconciliation), and students finish by role-playing museum curators deciding what to keep, cut, or reframe.
