The concept of multiculturalism IS part of our core culture, a key part, imo. I tend to find those who have a problem with it using the bogus question about a "core culture" are all too often hiding a bigotry against immigrants.

We ARE a liberal democracy and part of that is shown by our cultural diversity brought about by being a multicultural society.
