Abstract
This article examines the contradictory space of Canadian multiculturalism through the examination of provincial policies relating to immigrant teachers (commonly referred to as internationally educated teachers – IETs) in British Columbia. Whereas language of diversity is prevalent in educational policies regarding K-12 students, the concrete challenge of diversifying the teaching force still persists, as bureaucratic procedures pose barriers to the integration of IETs. The author uses critical discourse analysis of key educational policies and regulations in British Columbia to demonstrate this discrepancy.
