179 Words1 Page

Canada is “too afraid” but every country should follow in our footsteps and be proud of their nation while showing good nationalism then all hate would finally be at ease. There are plenty of examples of good and bad Nationalism but we as a country can forget about the past hate and focus on the new peace. Olympics are one of the most popular events that happen in the world and it is just the greatest thing to see all countries (that can afford it) to come together and no hate is around, only pride. The reason why I am picking the Olympics as an example of good nationalism is we are rooting so hard or our team and/or athlete to win and get disappointed if they lose and I ask myself why? I have never even talked to or meet this person nor

This paper will focus on Quebec’s nationalism influences on Canadian Politics, specifically the extent to which the 1980 referendum influenced Canadian Politics.

All over the world, people recognize and respect the Canadian flag, and, therefore, since the Canadian flag represents who Canadian are, they also respect Canadians (Archbold 151).

    The way that the rest of the world views Canadians and their indigenous people is very different to how they truly are, and how Canadians view and treat their indigenous people. In the 2010 Vancouver Olympics there was a lot of controversy concerning the logo for the games. The logo is what many may call a inukshuk but really it is a inunguat which is a representation of a man and not what the Vancouver Olympics symbolized it to be Inukshuk’s will never be shaped like they were ( news paper) . There were many other flaws from the dances chosen to preform and the contradictory fact that the land used to create the venues were where crucial to the indigenous people. This was a great chance to show the world our history and our first nations people, but I doesn’t seem fair after years of neglect to portray to the world a scud notion of how aboriginals are and were treated.

  • Interview Questions About Immigration To Canada

    In general, I believe that the answer to this question really depends on the immigrant that you are interviewing because different immigrants have different experiences (different factors or reasons for why they immigrated to Canada and how they felt after coming to Canada because different immigrants have different opinions about Canada as a country). An example of such a difference in opinion is the following; some immigrants prefer the multiculturalism and the diversity in the cultures/religions that exist in the Canadian society, whereas other immigrants dislike the multiculturalism. However, if I consider only my father, Monirul Islam’s, case and immigrant experience, then I believe that his experience was very memorable and life-changing
