Oath of Citizenship

to decide what is appropriate for an individual to wear during not only during the taking of oath of Canadian citizenship, but at any time in any place within the boundaries of our supposedly multicultural Canada? While this is not the first time they issues regarding dress have arisen within Canada, the case of Zunera Ishaq, drew considerable attention in 2015. In large part to the proximity to the federal election and a potential rising tide of Islamaphobia which began to permeate Canadian society. Canada may have an official policy of multiculturalism, but in practice, much is left to be desired. First and foremost, in my opinion, Canada is still, for the most part, a society governed by the ideology of a patriarchal, white, Christian European dominance, in which the “Other”, that is, anyone who does not fit this model, is “Gifted” or “Allowed”…

description on the war on drugs that has lead to a massive incarceration rates. The war on drugs has contributed to our modern mass incarceration problem. I believe that the civil forfeiture law that was established to allow police to keep any money or property from people suspected of being involved in illegal drugs. I find quite interesting why a law would be made that infringes our fourth amendment right, which states IV.) The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses,…

In this trial, the question the court is being asked to answer is whether Alex Cooper was responsible for his own injuries. Throughout this trial, the law applied was negligence. Negligence is broken down into four parts: duty, breach, causation, and damages. Due to the nature of this trial as a civil suit, the plaintiff had the burden of proof, meaning the burden to prove by the greater weight of the credible evidence. On the night of October 5, 2012, Taylor Hamilton was driving his mother’s…

much got rid of the hundreds of localized law codes that had existed during under the control of the monarchy. He also created an army of government officials. He had the entire country linked under a rational administration. He also was able to get an easy supply of taxes and soldiers under his new and improved French government. Before he could get very far, however, he had to gain public favor and shape the public opinion. To do this he used reforms of propaganda and thus caused people to…

“I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support, obey and defend the Constitution of the United States and the constitution of this state and that I will discharge the duties of my office with fidelity” (Law Enforcement). This is the official oath that all police officers take in the state of Utah. Officers around the country also take similar oaths before they can serve. The oath should be taken very seriously and every officer should fervently try to uphold it. Police officers face…

Persuasive Argument Have you ever been in a court or been tried for a crime? Have there been any witnesses on these trials. Well if you have then you probably know that they are heavy trusted and needed. I’m going to be talking about how some of the witnesses are not reliable and that we need to fix how we pick them and trust them. My first point is that witnesses have all the trust, by just holding the bible and swearing an oath, people can still lie. My second argument is that that they just…

play. Granted, the men do appear to be somewhat sorry for the fact that they have fallen in love despite the oath to stay away from women. For instance, Berowne laments about Rosaline: “To love the worst of all / A whitely wanton with a velvet brow, / With two pitch balls stuck in her face for eyes” (Shakespeare 4.1.192-194). On one hand, Berowne’s apparent sorrow shows his willingness to take the oath seriously. However, on the other hand, if Berowne truly loved Rosaline, it is perplexing that…

After proving eligibility, a machine may obtain citizenship, extension of universal rights, gaining freedom, and responsibilities, and consequences for choices, which will result in a machine society. Machines will need to possess both mental and physical presence to be eligible for universal rights. In the movie “I, Robot” Sonny would be a good an example of a candidate for full rights. I think that machines could…

Neither Tocqueville nor the authors of the Federalist Papers view an enlightened and virtuous citizenry as wholly essential to the Constitutional system, but while the federalists build institutions to defend the government against the self-interested passions of the people, Tocqueville sees the greatest benefits of the American political system where the government and the people meet: in the township and in political associations. The Federalists believe that the core of the Constitution…
