New York City is considered to be one of the busiest cities with some of the rudest people. Everyone has heard of the New York minute, everything happens so fast around us that we don’t notice what’s really going on. But there's something else happening in that split second, there is a whole community working together, all at once to create a single day. Some may think that since everyone is always in such a rush they are naturally rude and would push people out of their way. While that may…

makes the reader feel guilt or remorse for littering. No one wants to be called lazy, so those who actually have littered may remember this in the future. Ethos is shown by providing the company coupled with city that founded the ad. The city of Toronto and Livegreen are pretty credible sources when littering is the topic at play. The city must have funded the ad after being sick of the trash around the city. Logos is applied because, logical thinking states that throwing on the trash on the…

through social structures elucidated the story rapidly. The deeper I dug, the more prominent the links between the story and the reality of the time became. The character’s lives, employment, homes, daily routine, etc. seemed all to be a product of a greater system. Needless to say, I was…

Toronto is the commercial, cultural and financial center of Canada and is recognized as a prominent and influential global city. Therefore, Toronto is constantly changing to best adapt to both domestic and international trends. In recent years, there has been a boom in condominium development in the city of Toronto with, “sales increasing by 21.2% in the first quarter of 2015 compared to the first quarter of the previous year” (Vital signs, 2016). With the increasing number of condominium…

Cultures and food somewhat will water down in the future, but will not be entirely lost. It is important to recognize someone culture and background. Understanding where their family came from and how socialization played a major factor in the history of their family. In addition, it allows us to realize that our own families came from diverse roots and heritages. Does not matter what cultures we came from or if we are citizens or immigrants. By preserving culture, we are exposed to…

Former Toronto Mayor William Holmes Howland coined the term, “Toronto The Good” as his city slogan. (Ruppert, 2006) Derived from associations with middle class, Victorian morality and representing a staunch religious right wing perspective, Toronto was held up as a representative example; thus, according to Frommer’s (tourist guide) it was dubbed “Toronto The Good” (Davidson, 2007). The roots of this label, from where we stand now, are less than ideal. An argument could be made that Toronto is…

to recently release census data, international migration fuelled Canada’s population growth by two-thirds of Canada’s population between 2001 – 2006 (Stats Can 2011). Almost three-fourths of newcomers arriving between 1996 and 2001 have settled in Toronto, Montreal or Vancouver. Both Canada and the United States have experienced an increase in the regional distribution of entering immigrants. American research shows that a mixture of economic push factors (away from states like California) and…

The book, The Massey Murder takes place predominantly in downtown Toronto and mentions many streets and buildings which are still present. Some of the many buildings that were mentioned in the book include Old City Hall, Osgoode Hall, the Court Street Police Station, The Adelaide Street Courthouse, and Massey Music Hall. Most of these buildings are located near Adelaide Street, Jarvis Street, Bay Street and Queen Street. During the time of the trial, times and the city were a lot different than…

lives every single day. Canadas largest city, Toronto Ontario has a 630 Square kilometres of land in a population of around 2.6 million people. Mayor John Tory expects Toronto to take in between 2,000 and 2,500 refugees, but has not found specific place for them to live yet. They'll be scattered all over Toronto but some might not have enough money to buy a house or support their family. They don't want to be put into sketchy neighbourhoods or shady areas, they've all came from these kinds of…

Canadian Wonderland If I were to choose a country in the whole world to live in, I would choose Canada. There is many reasons for this but the major reason would be the beautiful sight there. Canada has everything, from glaciers and mountains to live theater shows. This country is very diverse, there is many different types of people as well as different languages being spoken. Their most spoken language is French (one of the languages I’ve been dying to learn), their national tree is the…
