It encompasses a diverse range of genres, including fiction, poetry, and drama, reflecting the multicultural and multilingual nature of Canadian society. Authors often explore themes such as identity, immigration, and the relationship between people and the land, drawing on the country's rich history and cultural heritage. Notable writers in this field include Margaret Atwood, Alice Munro, and Michael Ondaatje, who have gained international recognition for their contributions.
