Copts contribute to Canada's multicultural landscape through their religious practices, cultural events, and businesses. They maintain their religious traditions, such as unique liturgical customs and celebrations like Coptic Christmas and Easter. As active members of Canadian society, they promote intercultural understanding while preserving their faith and heritage. Their presence reflects Canada's diversity and commitment to religious coexistence.
