Immigration between 1900-1914 is a crucial point in Canada’s growth in population today. It all had pros and cons to this topic because, of the reasoning’s for immigration. This research report will give an idea of how immigration was conveyed and how various individuals with different ethnic groups were or were not approved to live in Canada’s regions. The 1900’s immigration consisted of many plans from Canada’s prime minister of the time, Wilfred Laurier and his assistant Clifford Sifton. Mr.…

The native culture of Australia includes a large number of resistances the oceanic continent before the arrival of the white man. However, all that rich culture is doomed to survive in stocks in which its people are destined to extinction because of the white man. Aboriginals have lots of special natures, ethics and culture which are most valuable for them. These include sacred paintings which have been obtained from the past generations. Aboriginal people introduce themselves and their…

Warsan Shire says, “No one leaves home unless a home is the mouth of a shark.” Refugees are people who are leaving their country to escape civil war and natural disaster, or because of religious persecution. Most immigrants come to the US to escape poverty, oppression, and to get better opportunities for themselves and for their children. No one wants to leave their home country, family, and friends, but sometimes it is dangerous to stay in their home country. When immigrants and refugees arrive…

Follow the Rabbit Proof Fence is a book written by Doris Pilkington. That story is concerned with the journey of three young Aboriginal girls who escape from the Moore River Native Settlement and walk the 1600 kilometers home to Jigalong. The three young girls were taken from their homes in the 1930s and placed in settlements initiated by government policy which forcibly removed half caste children from their Aboriginal families. Soon after their arrival they escape and begin their long journey…

In 2015 the world was battling with the persistent question of ‘Where can the Syrian Refugees go?’ and ‘Who has the available space to hold the increasing number of asylum seekers?’ One response to these questions was that we, as a first world nation, had a responsibility to care for and help those who had nowhere else to go. Followed by then by the people who blatantly said, “We do not want you. You are not welcome. We will not accept your religion. This is not our problem.” Unfortunately, the…

As Australia becomes closer economically and socially with the Asiatic region, ties with western countries are coming under scrutiny questioned. This growing concern has been perceived both within Australia and its’ neighbouring Asiatic countries. With questions as to where Australia’s true allegiance is invested. Historically Australia has always looked to larger countries for logistical and defence support; while looking to establish itself regionally as a dominant cultural and political…

Germany’s track record is 100 submarines exported since WW2. France has exported 20. The Germans and the French are easier with the idea of total transfer of intellectual property than the Japanese. It is a must that the submarines are built in Australia and that they can be maintained here. To build in another country, and have to send our subs there for maintenance, is to put ourselves at the mercy of that country’s industrial base and its continuing goodwill--aside from the other strong…

They are worrying about the people back in their villages because they love them and want to make sure they do not hear false information about them. They worry about the people back in their villages because the people back their involve their close family and they want to make sure everything is fine. Like one of the prisoner wants to make sure his wife is ok because he talks about how, “I…

thought of Aboriginal people at first. I recalled a friend’s excitement about his first holiday last year down under where his only perception about the Aboriginal people is the boomerang bought from a souvenir shop in Melbourne. Before coming to Australia, my impression about them was limited to black curly hair people living in the outback, boomerang, didgeridoo, traditional dance typically portrayed in tourism brochures. I hardly knew that these are merely some of stereotypes about the oldest…
