CAS 111 - Introduction to Canada (3 cr.)

By examining the Canadian national experience, Introduction to Canada encourages students to reflect on their place in the world, and the values they hold as citizens and as participants in global systems. Canada and the United States share a continent, language, integrated economy, commitment to liberal democratic political institutions, and to some extent, a common North American culture; yet Canada’s historical trajectory has produced a notably different set of principles, public policies, and social values.
