Welcome | Bienvenue, This site is dedicated to all Canadian educators, students, and citizens teaching and learning overseas. It has become overwhelmingly apparent to me, the more I travel and get around this beautiful planet of ours, that there are huge contingents of professional educators, pre-service educators, and students studying, learning, and visiting other countries from Canada. For a country with such a comparatively small population to other nations, I think that this is fantastic! I’m so proud of our Canadian ambassadors that I’ve produced a website to make their job a lot easier. Whatever role Canadians play in the ‘global village’, as an educator or a student, they make Canada proud everyday they’re out there. So let’s continue bringing the worlds people closer together through education, knowledge-building, tolerance and understanding. Canadian's come from one of the greatest multi-cultural and multi-centrist society on the planet, and if they’ve traveled at all they realize how special and privileged they are to have grown up as a citizen of Canada. Alone, nobody can solve the worlds most serious problems – the growing demand for food, shelter, health, employment, and quality of life – but through the use of the Internet and other communications technologies McLuhan’s ‘global village’ is going to be transformed into an agent of positive change; instead of a neo-liberal monopoly builder. Canadian educators and students alike should heed UNESCO's call to assist fellow educators; by show them how to unleash and utilize the power and full potential of ICTs to achieve greater societal understanding, by specifically creating opportunities:
It’s not a difficult equation to follow as an educator; be fair, get along with people, protect the environment, and don’t be scared to step in when you see people getting a raw deal. Support innovative communications technologies that develop peoples ability to help themselves; and be heard, you have a voice; you are Canadian, eh! Cheers,
