FACES May-June 2019

Oh Canada! Our neighbor to the north is both very similar and extremely different to the United States. This exciting edition of FACES Magazine takes an in-depth look at Canada, from the languages they speak—English and French mostly, to the food they eat—poutine: a dish of French fries with cheese and gravy (??), to the sports they play.

We share a boarder with Canada, yet Canadians have a history, traditions, language, currency, and society that is in many ways completely different than our own. Get to know this great nation to the north as you explore the animals, the culture, the geography, the people, and more. FACES Magazine covers Canada from coast to coast with gorgeous photographs, games, historical accounts, folktales, and articles. Get to know Canada’s animals and art, cuisine and culture, immigrants and indigenous peoples, and more.
