When people talk about “Canadian cuisine”, there are usually only a few things mentioned. The difficulty in classifying “Canadian” food is the difficulty in classifying Canadian culture: we are a “young” nation, whose culture is the appropriation of various colonial forces, primarily French, British, and Irish. What could be properly classified as traditional Canadian culture would be First Nations, but for obvious reasons the opportunity to indulge in indigenous food and culture has been systematically limited.
