Celebrating migrations on Canada's national day

For Canada Day, we're peering up at 'Passage migratoire' ('Migratory Passage'), an art installation of hanging braided canoes in Old Québec City. It was part of the 2016 edition of Passages Insolites (Unusual Passages), an annual public art exhibition in the historic Petit Champlain and Saint-Roch districts of the city. The canoe has long been associated with Canada's national history, linked with early explorers, fur traders, Indigenous peoples, and colonists who ventured out into the wilderness of the great north. The artist behind this installation, Giorgia Volpe, was inspired by 'the idea of migration and its influence on the formation of our society and our territory.' Canada welcomes on average about 200,000 immigrants each year, many of whom will become Canadian citizens.

在加拿大国庆日庆祝移民

为了庆祝加拿大日，我们要去参观“迁徙通道”（passion migratoire），这是一个古老的曲城悬挂编织独木舟的艺术装置é贝克市。这是2016年版的“圣殿圣殿（不寻常的圣殿）”的一部分，这是一个在历史悠久的小尚普兰和圣罗什地区举办的年度公共艺术展。独木舟长期以来一直与加拿大的国家历史联系在一起，与早期探险家、毛皮商人、土著人民和冒险进入大北方荒野的殖民者联系在一起。这套装置背后的艺术家乔治·沃尔佩（Giorgia Volpe）的灵感来自“移民的理念及其对我们社会和领土形成的影响”。加拿大平均每年欢迎约20万移民，其中许多人将成为加拿大公民。
