Gravelines

Spanish which pushed the Spanish into the storm. Moreover, the English did not have enough supplies of ammunition or food or water for along campaign but the Spanish were equipped with enough resources to last them up to four weeks. This impacted the way the English used their ammunition. This meant that instead of bombarding the Spanish with canons they had to use their bombs wisely and therefore the English made little impact but still pushed the Spanish past Scotland. In addition, the English ships were fast and agile, which meant they could outmanoeuvre the Spanish ships. This meant they had less of a chance of getting sunk, and helped the England win as without being able to use their boats to manoeuvre in and out at the Battle of Gravelines the English would probably have lost to the Spanish. Although some people may argue that the most important reason is Weapons, resources and fighting. They would argue that the English canon was the reason the Spanish were defeated and that Phillip’s advisors told him that he would need 500 ships to succeed.

On Monday, November 20th, 2017, at 0000 hours, I was dispatched to Ladnier Road near Graveline Road to assist Officer Allday with a traffic stop. Upon my arrival, Officer Allday conducted a consent given search of the vehicle while I spoke with the driver, Walter Lindsay.

guns preloaded before going into battle so the general and crew member were not trained to reload the guns. (Geoffrey Parker, Why the Armada Failed). The Spanish strategy was to fire off at the enemy ship just before they rammed into their enemy so their was no need for the crew to be trained to be able to reload because they thought that one shot would be enough (Geoffrey Parker, Why the Armada Failed). The Spanish also used the preloaded guns as a device to cripple the enemy ship just before…

first appeared in November 2012 when a Cree woman in Alberta upheld an information conference on Bill C-45, which was the federal government’s next omnibus budget bill (Idlenomore.ca). She wanted to bring light to the fact that this bill covered multiple topics, but none of these targeted their dilemma. First Nations activists were concerned about the bill’s contents, specifically, the insufficient and meaningless changes made to the Indian Act (Graveline, 2012). This hashtag turned into not…
