Inhaltsangabe

With nine out of ten Canadians claiming a religious affiliation of some kind - Catholic, Protestant, Jewish, Islamic, Hindu, Buddhist, Aboriginal, or one of dozens of other religions - faith has huge impact on our personal and social lives. In this book, Robert Choquette offers a comprehensive history of religion in Canada and examines the ongoing tug-of-war between modernity and conservatism within the religious traditions themselves. Religion enters into many areas of daily life - including politics, education, community standards, and general behaviour - and this book provides an excellent overview. Through illustrative stories and in-depth research, Canada's Religions offers a timely and invaluable resource, placing religion within its ever-changing social context and inviting the reader to a new level of understanding of Canada's religious faiths.
