    Like all previous cycles of booms and busts, the seeds of the subprime meltdown were sown during unusual times. As the global financial crisis (GFC) of 2008 erupted, the worst recession since the 1930s elicited unprecedented action from nations and their central banks. However, through the chaos, Canada appeared to have weathered the storm unscathed. In his work, Canada’s Housing Bubble Story: Mortgage Securitization, the State, and the Global Financial Crisis, Alan Walks describes Canada’s experiences during and after the financial crisis. To do so, Walks outlines four broad objectives: cross-examine Canadian policy history, challenge Canadian exceptionalism propagated by mainstream media, evaluate the policies pursued by the Canadian government, and finally deduce the implications on Canada’s mortgage market and rising household debt.…

    In Chapter Four of Holler If You Hear Me by Gregory Michie, the author describes how some of the other veteran teachers in his education classes expressed their views on the disconnect between education theory and classroom reality. One such example of this disconnect is the theory of differentiated instruction. I have learned a lot about differentiated instruction in my Foundations Block classes this semester, since I had not previously heard of the concept. In theory, this practice is a great way to tailor instruction to each student’s individual needs, as well as encourage learning and exploration.…

    During the post-war period, countries were either peacebuilders or warriors. If they were peacebuilders they would help other countries maintain peace, order, and a ceasefire. If they were a warrior they would help other countries fight. In the post-war period, Canada was a warrior. The Korean War, Persian Gulf War, and the War in Afghanistan are three examples of Canada being a warrior in the post-war period.…

    It also asks and allows one to explore what are surely, in my case, undiscovered passions. There is great value in being given the time and tools to do that, as it allows students to discover new fields of study which they may not have had the opportunity to experience before, and which may just be their calling. I have always loved learning and only…

    Canadian Policy

    Change in Canadian Policy To quickly summarize, all three countries condemn torture, but all three countries commit torture to some degree by finding loopholes in their own policies to justify their actions. With the US, it is by narrowing the definition of torture, Israel circumvents its policies by using the necessary clause, and Russia simply ignores its own policies as there is no system in place to hold the government accountable for its actions. The question then becomes whether or not Canada should either modify its policy or adopt a torture policy more similar to the three countries, or continue to preserve its own policies. To start if Canada adopted any practices similar to any of the three countries it would cause international…

    Collectivism In Canada

    • 329 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Canada can strongly be considered and recognized as a collectivist society. Canada provides a variety of social programs such as, free health care, public education, welfare and employment insurance, which therefore helps secure the well-fare of citizens collectively. In support of these beneficial programs, all Canadian citizens are obliged to pay for them through taxation despite not everyone using them. The inclination to provide without self-interest, demonstrates Canada’s prioritization of the well-being of the collective. However, due to these programs, it limits citizen's economic freedom, therefore, subsequently, limiting on individualism.…

    I will be examining the context of Native Canadians in the first world war, while referencing Boyden’s style of integrating that experience in Elijah, Xavier and Peggy. I started this IOP with the assumption that native Canadians were not treated as fairly as the Canadians during the war. That they were not recognised in history and may have had to do extra work from racist undertones. Perhaps seeing that the history could be different than the book details. During the first world war, an estimated 4000 Aboriginal people voluntarily enlisted into the Canadian military.…

    I feel because dominant Canadian culture wants to make Indigenous people similar to them, it drive Aboriginal cultures to desire more visible separation, therefore a lot of Indigenous people chose to stay on the reserves where there is poverty and bad living conditions. Yet, i also feel like Indigenous people who chose to leave the reserves, move to big cities are trying to destroy the stereotypes that portray Aboriginals as uneducated, jobless, always drunk. However it is hard to change dominant culture's opinion right away that's why King is making this promo video that emphasizes that those stereotypes are no longer relevant or at least are not applicable to all Indigenous people, as there are a lot of successful professionals with Indigenous…

    Why America is better than Canada To preface this essay, let it be known that I had originally wanted to type this as a Skype message, but eventually realized that I would need an entire essay to explain why the U.S. is better than this loathsome piece of freezing diarrheic filth. Many sources were needed to put this together, and I will attack on all fronts. Maybe you can go get your feelings checked after this you vile, vacant, worthless cunts. First of all, many Canadians want to live in America instead of Canada.…

    Imperialism In Canada

    The first source is a quotation from Prime Minister John A. Macdonald, regarding the Aboriginal peoples and their tribal system. The source states, “The Canadian Government will do away with the tribal system, and assimilate the Indian people in all respect with the inhabitants of the Dominion.” This source presents the idea that the relationship between the Aboriginals and the Federal government in Canada at the time was very harmful and demonstrated a lack of respect towards the First Nations. At the time, the Prime Ministers plan was to assimilate the Indigenous people and their culture. This progressed on for nearly five hundred years where there was the concept of Imperialism, The implementation of the Indian Act, residential schools and…
