Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Pluralism requires that all racial and ethnic categories have roughly equal social standing, but Canada fails to meet this requirement. Despite valuing ethnic diversity, many racial and ethnic groups experience discrimination and marginalization, preventing Canada from being truly pluralistic. While some people may live in ethnic enclaves (choice A), this alone does not disqualify Canada from being pluralistic, nor does the belief in racial superiority (choice D) have any place in a pluralistic society.
