Nestled in the Boreal forest at the confluence of five rivers, Fort McMurray - the largest city in the Wood Buffalo region - is a vibrant community rich in history and culture, with unlimited opportunities for unique and memorable experiences. Confluence is symbolic not only of the rivers meeting here but as the meeting ground of cultures from around the world that come here to work, play and live. It is this community that Confluence represents; one that is trying to integrate, break barriers and make it their home.
Though we may travel our own cultural corridors, there are an incredible number of points of intersection everyday in our city between people of entirely different cultural backgrounds. How do these intersections influence us? What kind of patterns of behavior and lifestyle evolve as a result? How do we relate to one another and build our sustainable community enriched by each interaction?
