    There are very few national debates within the country of Canada that are as prominent as the arguments surrounding the Atlantic seal hunt. The seal hunt is a traditional event that happens annually in the Atlantic provinces of Canada which takes place in the early spring of the year. This annual hunt provides a significant source of income to many of the residents in the Atlantic provinces (Sanger, 1998). The large debate surrounding the topic of the seal hunt is due to the fact that many people believe that the hunt is inhuman and should be stopped. The other side of this debate is that the hunt is not only humane but is also important to the Atlantic provinces and therefore should continue (Vaughan, 2009).…

    The camp you will be staying at is off the coast of Southern California and is on the North Western side of Catalina. It is 22 miles from Los Angeles which is where you board the ship that takes you to Catalina. When you are outside (or sometimes even when you are inside), the temperature is normally really warm and sometimes humid so I would suggest bringing and applying sunscreen in the morning and after every meal. Some of the native plants are eucalyptus trees, pine trees, moss, and cherry trees. The cherries that are on Catalina Island are different than what we are used to.…

    Thinking about the ideal “Western Hero” in the 19th century brings to mind three important things which are, giving the United States more land, taking out the Native Americans, and bringing the start of industrialization. Now this is what the civilians of the States were thinking while the western expansion was going on, but people failed to see the struggles they put on the Native Americans. The myth that the western hero is a strong noble man who did their country right, is not entirely true. Yes, without the Indian Removal act of 1830 or the Louisiana purchase we may not be about to call America one of the most innovative country’s in the world, but Americans would have a cleaner conscience. So because western heroes are portrayed as people who were great for America, then Americans have used their image for public display throughout the 20th century despite knowing what they put the Native Americans through.…

    American Dream Is the American dream still alive and do people still achieve it successfully? Do people all dream about it? The American dream is the belief that anyone even if they were born in a high-class family or poor family, can achieve their own success in a society that it is possible for everyone.

    If we were to go back to the American West in the late 1800’s, the view that a person would see is vastly different than the view a person would see in present day. In present day, the skyline would often be filled with buildings, cars, and more people than wild animals. Back in the late 1800’s, there was little buildings (if any), no cars, and wild open space filled with different type of wild animals. The west was just beginning to become settled by the Americans because the east coast was filled up and land was needed. The view of the west was in its natural state, not touched by a large group of humans yet.…

    The Truth about the West I believe that the West was a myth; it was actually extremely hard work and was not a great lifestyle to be a cowboy, miner, or farmer. Their jobs were very dangerous, and did not get paid very much. The money they did earn would go to new clothing, food, or bathing. Often miners came from China because the U.S. citizens would not want to leave their family and friends.…
