'Team Australia' sparks debate
Multicultural Minister elaborates on nurturing true blue identity
"I don't want any child to feel they are an outsider. That's my fear." Multicultural Affairs Minister, Nicholas Kotsiras (R) with Victorian Education Minister Martin Dixon.
"Our legislation has achieved the outcome of uniting individuals and groups, while at the same time encouraging people to be proud to showcase their differences. That's what our legislation does." Team Australia may well sing the national anthem before the game begins, but the political football that is 'multiculturalism' will be kicked around a while yet before there's universal agreement on how its principles can best be sewn into the fabric of Australian society.
