"Cultural mosaic" French: "la mosaïque culturelle" is the mix of ethnic groups, languages, and cultures that coexist within society. The notion of the cultural mosaic is quoted toa construct of multiculturalism, different from other systems such(a) as the melting pot, which is often used to describe nations like the United States' assimilation.
The "cultural mosaic" opinion is non without critics. Some pundits, such(a) as Jeffrey Simpson in addition to Carleton University journalism professor Andrew Cohen, cause argued that the entire melting pot/mosaic dynamic is largely an imagined concept and that there maintain little measurable evidence that American or Canadian immigrants as collective groups can be proven to be more or less "assimilated" or "multicultural" than each other.
