    Because Canada is a northern country, it’s climate is considered to be much colder, especially when compared to the south. It was believed that this harsh climate created a stronger, more superior race, and that people from the south would not be able to survive such a climate as a result of natural selection. So therefore the north was better than the south because of it’s strong races and its “[exclusion of] Blacks and Asians on the grounds that they were unsuited to the cold climate of Canada” (Mackey, p.33). Canada soon became known for it’s wilderness, as a result of paintings created by the Group of Seven.…

    Over the course of its history, Canada is often considered a safe haven for a large amount of people from places such as the Middle East, Asia, Europe, and possibly the United States after this November’s election. In the article An Unknown Country by Roy Macgregor, the idea that Canada is formed from countless different cultures, and a leader in acceptance and tolerance is a central notion brought forth, despite discussing some blemishes in it’s past in welcoming others. In essence, the main idea that he depicts in the article is that Canada is lacking a distinct Canadian identity, but what makes us Canadian is that we are made up of a wide variety cultures that came from other countries, and we pride ourselves in that concept. While some could argue that Canada has several inspirations that are especially Canadian, such as hockey and maple syrup, this alone is not enough to establish an identity that it can call it’s own. So, as a result, Macgregor argues…

    History Script: Since the early 17th century until the early 1900s, Aboriginal Peoples have signed treaties with the British and French, which the two countries then, turned into Canadians later on, after Confederation. Although, in the beginning, when the British first started to sign treaties with the Aboriginals, they wanted to encourage peace, yet, later on, the British and French looked at the treaties from a different perspective, then the Aboriginals and each country had different goals that they wanted to achieve from the treaties. Even though, the Aboriginals sacrificed a lot of their rights and freedom while signing the treaties, I strongly believe, each and every treaty that was signed with the Aboriginal Peoples was worthy and they were historically significant to Canadian history. In the early 17th century Aboriginal Peoples began to sign treaties with the French and British.…
