"Ibbitson declares the book’s central concern in the opening sentence: “Sometime, not long ago, while no one was watching, Canada became the world’s most successful country. ” Ibbitson argues that Canada’s exceptionally diverse population, with its high number of immigrants from a wide range of countries, living peacefully and prosperously together, makes our country a model to which the rest of the world can only aspire.
