Flag of Canada

Jack as a faded full flag. I added it as without the United Kingdom, Canada would not exist in the form it does today. As it is today however, Canada lives without leadership from the United Kingdom, but they still are connected through the British Commonwealth. The Canadians I found the Union Jack significant enough to have it fill the entire flag, but keep it as a fade to prioritize the Canadian aspect of the Canadian flag. Secondly, I added the two known Aboriginal flags as they are the…

Canada has grown as a nation and has become very independent starting from July 1st, 1867 when they were just a small British Colony, to today where they are their own developed and independent nation. In the past Canada would fight in wars and battles because the British were involved, for example in WWI Canada was expected to take part in the war because the British were involved. Canada was just seen as a small part of an enormous empire. Although this carried on for sometime, Canada matured…

French culture. Words of the French Canadians were often ignored because the English Canadian had more population so they had more say.

My cultural background is also reflected in the dialect of Arabic I speak. Next to that right in the middle, I have a map/ flag of the United Arab…

The French and English relations in Canada have always been in turmoil and of uncertainty, as my three topics and stamps will discuss. The French despise of the English began with the Conscription Crisis of World War One which proceeded to Quebec’s new ideas of ‘separation’ created during the Quiet Revolution, and finally the ‘saviour’ of Canadian identity within Quebec and on a whole, Pierre Trudeau and his efforts to create a balanced country. The first topic I will be exploring is the 1917 to…

Canada has contributed so much towards the United Nations that it is one of the main reasons why it is so big and not another League of Nations. In June 1956 when the leader of Egypt took the Suez Canal Britain, France and eventually the U.S stepped in and Went to war with Egypt. When the crisis started Canadians eagerly seized the opportunity for the UN services and lead by Lester B. Pearson the first UN peacekeeping mission was done, awarding Pearson with a Nobel Prize. Canada was one of the…

The earliest claim to Hans Island is by Denmark. A map appearing in Meddelelser om Grønland is the first geological map to show Hans Ø. It was compiled in 1922 and published in 1931. Danish geologist have also found evidence that the island is more geologically similar to Greenland than to Ellesmere Island. (Dawes and Tukiainen 78-79). Denmark also claims Hans Island based on a ruling made in 1933 by the Permanent Court of International Justice decided in favor of Denmark over the legal…

while Canada attempts to combat the contrasting Nation’s endeavors. When a Nation’s bellicoseness causes it contend its borders, it is expected of the influenced nation to combat the impending seizure. Stated in the Sources, the principal forces involved in the commotion for Arctic Sovereignty are the Canadian’s initial claim over the Arctic, The United-State’s attempts at claiming unrestricted domain, and the Russian brashness; attempting to claim the Arctic with devious undersea flags. The…

Peacekeeping, meaning an active conservation of a bond between nations, "the maintenance of international peace and security by the deployment of military forces in a particular area" (Dictionary.com, 2015).
