Canadian society differs from the United States. In particular, a central theme is the problem of reconciling Quebec nationalist aspirations within the economic union of Canada, and its English speaking majority. While the U.S solution to 'ethnic' diversity has officially been the 'melting pot' model, the Canadian approach has formally been the recognition of diversity and group rights within the contemporary policy of `multiculturalism'.

In particular, a central theme is the problem of reconciling Quebec nationalist aspirations within the economic union of Canada, and its English speaking majority. While the U.S solution to 'ethnic' diversity has officially been the 'melting pot' model, the Canadian approach has formally been the recognition of diversity and group rights within the contemporary policy of `multiculturalism'. The policy emerged from a national debate that attempted to conciliate the French Quebec population, but it resulted in the eventual recognition of the 'Other' groups.The book examines the Canadian socio-cultural policies of immigration and 'multiculturalism', and the impact on socio-economic and spatial differentiation in Canadian society. The case study is Montreal. The main objectives of the volume are to illustrate levels of stratification within Canadian society and to analyse it within a historical and material framework. Throughout Canadian immigration history, there have been preferred groups, whom the government actually sought, and those who were actively discouraged or even barred from entering the country. These distinctions were often based on overtly 'racist' notions of Canadian national identity and constructions of the 'Other'. Analysis will focus especially on groups, such as the Jewish and African Canadian minorities, as well as the dominant British and French. While immigration policies are mainly concerned with settlement, the policy of 'multiculturalism' places emphasis on the place of the newcomers within the society. It is an assertion of this book that the policy of 'multiculturalism', contributes to reinforce stratification in Canadian society.The book offers a critical theoretical framework, from which analysis stems. It assesses various conceptual schools of thought pertaining to issues of social and spatial segregation, and conceptual questions such as the construction of 'race' and 'ethnicity' and the role of the state in implementing social policies.Canadian socio-cultural polices, pertaining to notions of national identity, within a historical analysis are presented. Analysis of Canada's immigration history and the experiences of various immigrant groups is carried out in order to demonstrate the construction of national identity and how it affects the `Others'. Montreal, the Canadian and Quebecois social formations are critically examined from a historical perspective. Detailed empirical analysis of social and spatial segregation in Montreal is provided, in relation to the historical and conceptual analysis. The book ultimately examines the state of contemporary `race relations' in the city.
