Share what living in Canada means to you

Everyone in Canada has a specific idea of what living in this country means to them. Whether it's unique to their family traditions, honouring multiple cultural backgrounds, or simply embracing the niche customs of their community — whatever that specific Canada thing is, it connects us and makes us, well, us. So let's celebrate it.
This summer, we're asking people across the country to share their Canada thing with pride.
Celebrating Canada together
Visit our colourful pop-up kiosk to share what living in this country means to you and test your knowledge of Canadian culture in a friendly competition to win fun CBC prizes.
Join CBC for our It's a Canada Thing Summer Tour, featuring stops at festivals and events throughout Canada.
