CBC: Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada said the revamp is focused on several key areas, including:
- Responding to the Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s call for language that better reflects the perspectives and history of Indigenous peoples of Canada.
- Showcasing Canada’s cultural diversity and commitment to official languages.
- Presenting the social evolution of civic rights and freedoms for LGBT, women and people with disabilities.
- Using language that is more accessible for second-language learners and structuring the document so the newcomer can more easily identify the main points of each chapter.
