    The Pop Culture Scare The media and pop culture have influenced society in more ways than we know. Everything that society does, thinks, feels, or believes, comes from social media or a standard of pop culture. For example, the “YOLO”, “haters gonna hate”, or any other of the ridiculous basic sayings portrayed by the media or news, are slowly consuming young people’s minds and actions. The worldly things in the media are influencing young people negatively by inequality between the sexes, loss of creativity and originality, and decreases trust in the media world.…

    Canada Prime Minister

    • 764 Words
    • 4 Pages

    Since the confederation of Canada in 1867 and the election of Sir John A. Macdonald as the first prime minister, the role of the nation’s leader has changed. While the prime minister is elected by the people to govern at the helm of Canada, “the excessive centralization of executive powers by the prime minister can damage good democratic government”. In our Westminster-style government, the power vested within the prime minister has become somewhat absolute, with too much control over the House of Commons. Over time, numerous factors have contributed to the decline of responsible government and the rise of the prime minister’s power. Such factors like the Canadian Constitution, the type of government, party solidarity and the liberty for the prime minister to choose members of both his Cabinet and the Senate have been crucial in the growth of power.…

    Vincent M. DeGrandpré stated that, “...the demand for celebrity images and information is driven in large part by society’s communication needs and by our respective need to forge personal identity.” (Source C). This is from a less negative perspective, but it still shows how celebrities need to accept that their open status prevents them from having a private life. Celebrities have become a connecting force in society for people to connect about similar interests and when a celebrity’s image is posted for the public to see, it violates their privacy. Celebrities must accept that when they affect social change due to their lives, private and open, that there are prices that have to be paid such as a private life.…

    I personally think that the prime minister holds more power than a primer. The prime minister is the head of the government in Canada and with such positions comes great power. First of all, the prime minister is the head of the governing party in the federal legislature, mean while the premier is the equivalent of that, but at a provincial level. This means that the premier is the leader of the government in his province and is also a representative of their province in the federal legislature. At the end of the day the PM is the one who call the shots and leads legislature at a federal level, a position that holds more power that the one the premier holds.…

    Canadian Politicians

    Politicians should be judged based on their accomplishments and not their personalities as the actions of a politician affect citizens to a much greater extent than their character, politicians make important decisions unexpected of them in regard to their public persona, and as the personalities of politicians often differ from their public personas. To begin, the actions of a politician are of much greater importance than how the public perceives the politician, a prime example being Mackenzie King, “a pragmatic and cautious politician who avoided making decisions if he could . . . [A] deliberate technique to try to please everyone” (Cranny and Moles 114-115). Though he was perceived positively by the vast majority of Canadians because of…

    In this day and age, mass media itself comes in many different forms. From traditional media comprising newspapers, radio and television programmes, to new media, such as blogging, forums and social medias. With various forms of media being so readily accessible to us, it is inevitable that we hear all about the discord, disputes and dilemmas in both our society and internationally. When media can sow the seeds of discord in society and/or propagate existing societal dilemmas, can we really blame it for the problems we see in today's world? I believe that mass media can only take partial blame as it is but a tool in the hands of people, used to create both discord and harmony.…
