Immigration to Canada

I went to Canada for my high school. During that time, I had experienced the way of teaching in Canada. I had found out that there are different teaching systems between China and Canada, each system of teaching can affect a person when they are in the sociality. There is nothing called “a better system”, but only if that fits you better. Every country focuses on different points in their education, they want people in their country become better on a pacific ability （不懂）. In Canada, I found…

War of 1812 was a conflict between the United States and the British Empire. Causes of the war is British attempting to cut the U.S. trade. The Royal Navy also outraged by Americans by practice of impressment, or removing seamen from U.S. merchant vessels and forcing them to serve on behalf of the British. Restricting trade hurt more America than France or Britain. In the fall of 1811 U.S. troops leaded to the Battle Of Tippecanoe. After the American troops won that war the Native’s thought they…

television, automobiles, and art. Because Canada was late to the game of broadcasting, automobiles and country development, Canadians were heavily impacted by the American ways. During the 1950s to the 1980s Canada started to emerge and protect and grow their Canadian culture and identity. The CBC was a heavy impactor on Canadian culture and identity since most Canadians spent many hours a day watching television. NAFTA brought new and economic resources in Canada for a better economy and more…

Canadian-Born Chinese Children Canadian-Born Chinese (CBC) children are a fast-growing minority in Canada. When CBC children grow older, most of them struggle between Canadian culture at school, and Chinese culture at home with tension, since there are a lot of differences in these two cultures. For example, in Canadian culture where outgoing personality is valued, CBC children are encouraged to be talkative in school. However, when they have Chinese cultural lesson from home, parents require…

Should Canada and the United States have a common economic system with little government involved? I don’t think they should have common systems because there are disadvantages to it. Now, don’t get me wrong because I know that there are advantages to it as well, but I believe that Canada should just stay the way it is. I could name several advantages and/or disadvantages, so here are some main ones about a market economy. There are many different perspectives on a market economy, some people…

relatively low on this social hierarchy are single mothers - defined in this case as a woman, who is unmarried, divorced or widowed, who has children aged zero to eighteen under her primary care. Single mothers make up 79.9% of all lone-parent families in Canada, representing 12.8% of all families that partook in a 2011 census (“Portrait of Families”, 2011). Despite the large number of female-headed families, there is a gross lack of supports in place for single mothers. Throughout history, the…

caused some tension among the Francophone community, particularly in Quebec, as many immigrants are choosing to learn English over French. In the long term, this may be more beneficial to them, especially for those who wish to later travel through Canada or North America. However, Quebec is finding that the percentages of French speaking people are decreasing substantially. In 1989, the number of French speaking workplaces in Montreal was 85 percent, and in 2010 it was recorded that the number…

Eric Tang’s “Unsettled”, shows that Cambodian refugees being treated unfairly and put in the hyper ghetto is an important literature that shows that the resettlement in the camps was not the solution for a better living standard. This is the denial of human rights against Cambodians in the US or is not that different from the Khmer Rouge. In this paper, I will argue about there are not that much difference in treatment inside the settlement camp and the Khmer Rouge. First, the reason that…

Vérendrye shouldn’t be inducted into the Canadian Explorer Hall of Fame because he didn’t do that much to help make Canada. He was born on November 17, 1685, Trois-Rivières and died on December 5, 1749, Montreal. He was a soldier and then became a farmer for sixteen years. In 1731 — at the age of 43, which was old in those days — he decided to become an explorer. He explored Canada and was part of the fur trade. He had promised to discover the Western Sea but he only gone forward to Lake…
