ИСТИНА

In one and a half centuries which passed after creation of the Canadian federation, Canada has gone a long way from a self-managing colony as a part of the British Empire to one of the most developed states of the world community. The originality of the Canadian historical experience is the fruitful soil for scientific research. Indefatigable interest of scientists in the problems of emergence of the nations and nationalism opens broad prospects for research of Canadian consciousness. Studying this problem will promote understanding the whole mechanism of regularities of mass consciousness in the political system.
