    She was one of those pretty and charming girls born, as if by an error of fate, into a family of clerks. She had no dowry, no expectations, no means of becoming known, understood, loved or wedded by a man of wealth and distinction; and so she let herself be married to a minor official at the Ministry of Education. She dressed plainly because she had never been able to afford anything better, but she was as unhappy as if she had once been wealthy. Women don't belong to a caste or class; their beauty, grace, and natural charm take the place of birth and family. Natural delicacy, instinctive elegance and a quick wit determine their place in society, and make the daughters of commoners the equals of the very finest ladies.…

    Citizenship In Canada

    On behalf of the Immigration and Citizenship Society of Canada, it is suffice to say that the Canadian government through the bills of C-51 and C-24 are ruining the prestigious reputation of Canada as a country who welcomes and takes care of refugees. Our target is the people of the government, and the use of boundary making due to these laws is wrong. Everyone deserves a change at life in Canada, and these legislations do the opposite of that. These bills need to either be revoked or severely altered in a way that not every immigrant in Canada with a citizenship is monitored as a possible terrorist. The immigrants of Canada are people who should be glorified for choosing this country and wishing to work, pay taxes and contribute…
