We+Are+More

=We Are More by **Shane Koyczan** =

The difference between reading the poem and hearing it from him is that you could hear the passion in his voice and also you could hear different expressions in his voice like the powerful lines he put gaps between the sentences and his voice itself gave the poem more depth. The writer used a lot of metaphors like "Canada is the 'what' in 'what's new'." this metaphor is saying that canada has so many things to do and we also have so many new things to do and explore. Also the poem had a lot of meaning to me because i am canadian and i have heard the stereo types as well as the criticism to canadians also i am proud of my country because **i am proud to be canadian.**
