These asylum seekers are smuggled in large numbers everyday by water and land and often end up dying or in worse situations than they sought refuge from. Not only do we as human beings have a duty to help those who are suffering, but politics, and those who make up our political systems globally share that duty. The focus on…

Conscription intensified this divide and created more domestic tension. Many French-Canadians opposed the war as they felt “a war in Europe was no threat to Canada” (Colyer, Cecillon,…
