    The idea of having a confederation in Canada was highly debatable as it would affect each colony and region differently. Canada West and Canada East shared similar views on going through with a confederation, where as some areas thought differently. Being that the majority of the population in Canada was in Canada West, the confederation would bring many advantages. The government would be substantially stronger and Canada west would have the majority of seats in parliament. West Canada would dominate the trade business and would have increased trading opportunities with Canada East.…

    As his government had fallen again, I approached the new governor general, Lord Monck, and obtained a dissolution. Before I could act on it, I was approached by Brown through intermediaries; the Grit leader felt that the crisis gave the parties the opportunity to join together for constitutional reform. Brown had led a parliamentary committee on confederation among the British North American colonies, which had reported back just before the Taché-Macdonald government fell. Brown was more interested in representation by population; my priority was a federation that the other colonies could join. The two compromised and agreed that the new government would support the "federative principle"—a conveniently elastic phrase.…

    Neoliberalism In Canada

    How has neoliberalism influenced political and social development in the US as compared to Canada? The article by Siddiqi et al.1 more than describing the influence of neoliberalism as a social phenomena in US and Canada provides information on how both societies reacted differently to that. Neoliberalism prompted “similar” policies and socioeconomic inequalities in US and Canada with the same potential to harm social bonds and health. However, Canada showed a different reaction to that stimulus, being more resilient and able to mitigate the societal influence of neoliberalism on the distribution of socioeconomic resources and its consequences for health status by preserving social cohesiveness while maintaining equality in the provision…

    This essay is about the Quiet Revolution in Quebec that occurred between 1960 and 1966 and the many changes that occurred during this time period. Throughout these six years, Quebec experienced various changes on a social, economical and political level. This crucial period consisted of Quebec emerging out of the Duplessis era, characterized by traditionalism, conservatism and, generally, a rejection of contemporary ways and values (Claude, Bélanger, 2000). With the election of the Liberal Party led by Jean Lesage in 1960, wanting to improve public services (health), develop new industries, have access to natural resources and more.…

Toope is the director of the Munk School of Global Affairs at the University of Toronto, and is well qualified to question our country’s dreams as we approach an intimidatingly stormy future. To his audience of Canadians of all ages, Toope questions if current Canadian state is the best that can be done. Should hockey and Medicare be the defining features of a country that has sustained democratic rule for so long?

    Throughout the past decades and presently, Quebecers have been known for their ongoing loyalty and strong devotion to their nation including their dying culture. Quebec’s advocacy of political independence from Canada, i.e. nationalism, has been significantly influential in shaping Canadian politics in the past and present. Nationalism has not only heavily influenced culture and politics in Quebec but more importantly has influenced politics in the Canadian nation as a whole. It is safe to say that Nationalism has led to various changes in the constitution, some of which are beneficial and some causing controversial debate. With Quebec putting a great effort and many its resources in it’s attempt to protect the French language, this ultimately…

    A. Question: To what extent was Canadian Confederation in 1867 the result of political, economic and social factors beyond the control of the British colonies of North America? B. Thesis: Despite the success of the Great Coalition, and the need for a railway connecting the West and the East, being influential factors that led to Confederation, Canadian Confederation in 1867 most prominently came as a result of the Manifest Destiny ideology of the American people, and the termination of the Reciprocity Treaty, both factors beyond the control of the British colonies of North America. C. Evidence: POV #1: The success of the Great Coalition was a prominent political factor within the control of the British North American colonies, that had a…

    Currently Canada is known as a bilingual and multicultural country. Our society has made it illegal to discriminate any person with a certain religion, their mother language, gender, etc. But unfortunately in the previous years, starting 1913’s Anglophone and Francophone were not great neighbours as in today. There are multiple events that have changed the two relations.

    I am currently a Master of Social Work student at University of Windsor and from being in the program, it had really opened my eyes about the negative impact that inequality has on marginalized groups. Canada is often described and portrayed as a land of opportunity and a place where people can live good lives. Unfortunately this is not the case for everyone since there are individuals and families who are currently living in poverty. A lot of Canadians are negatively impacted by child poverty, income inequality and gender equity which does not make sense especially for a wealthy country like Canada. In Windsor for instance, the west end is often given a bad name since there is a lot of run down homes and it is not as nice as the east end and…

    Inequality In Canada

    A country cannot be prosperous if it does not treat its citizens the same. There are many methods used to protest inequality such as rallies, riots, and walkouts. None of them are as effective as when the people who are deemed “lesser” are needed during times of crisis. A crisis pushes differences aside and lets the “lesser” portion of the population be equal for the time being, this being exactly how the roles of women changed in Canada during the Second World War. The 1940’s were a time period to change gender roles, and with the desperate reality of war, women were needed more than ever.…

    Introduction: Deinstitutionalization of mental health facilities has been a major issue in Canada for centuries. Deinstitutionalization is a process of closing down facilities and integrating these patients into society (Lamb, 2010). In the 17th and 18th centuries, very little was known about mental illness. In these times, it was believed that institutionalization had negative impacts on both patients and staff and these symptoms of mental illness were associated with criminality and evil spirits (Morrow, 2010). Mental health is such a prominent issue in Canada and affordable care is scarce.…
