There are many tribes of the first peoples living in Canada. The Inuit, Haida, and the Sioux are all First Nations people. All three of these tribes have things in common, how the Inuit are different, how the Haida are different, and how the Sioux are different. The Inuit, the Haida, and the Sioux are all located in Canada, make different kinds of artwork, have similar tools for hunting and fishing, and they all make their clothing out of animal skins and furs. Topic 1, the Inuit lives in Labrador, Newfoundland, Ungava Bay, Hudson bay, Nunavut, and Quebec. The Haida lives in British Columbia, Haida Gwaii Islands, and Queen Charlotte Islands. The Sioux is located in Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba. Manitoba. Topic 2, all three tribes…

These events do not occur largely due to the types of zonal ecosystems present on the archipelago. For example, fires play a very minor role in the forest ecology due to the primarily wet climate throughout Haida Gwaii (Banner et al., 2014). However, human-caused fires on Haida Gwaii have occurred as was made evident by the presence of charcoal at both the Gore Brook Trail in Queen Charlotte and the Anvil Trail in Tlell, both of which have played a role in altering the forest landscape.…

A study done in Laskeek Bay on East Limestone and Reef Island looked at the effect of Sitka-black tailed deer on the Sitka spruce tree. The study found that while the deer do like to browse the younger spruce seedlings, once the apex of the tree exceeds 1.2 m in height, the tree is able to escape the deer (Vila, Torre, Guibal & Martin, 2003a). However, in the presence of deer it takes 13 – 18 years for the young spruce to reach the necessary height, this is significantly longer than in areas…

The movie “Snow White and the Huntsman” takes a lot of creative liberties. It expands greatly on the original story which many new elements and even removes some parts. Like the addition of an evil queen with super powers. How she not only wants to be the most beautiful and powerful person, but can take life from other people to maintain her beauty and power. The opening of “Snow White and the Huntsman” is done just as the story in the Grimm brothers’ book. The queen pricks her finger (on a…

Being involved in the community will change ones life. It was my senior year in high school until I realized what happens when one gets involved in their community. Being involved in the Miracle League not only helped the kids, it helped me as a person. I still remember the first time I went to the Miracle League. It was a tradition of my baseball team to go to the Miracle League once a year. I was nervous, and did not know what to expect. It was a steaming hot…

interview with Winnie, she mentioned her concerns about the future of public schools in the area, especially as more and more charter schools emerge. Francis Lewis, where she attended high school, Bayside, and John Bowne were already in trouble when she graduated, a few years ago. With the closing of Jamaica High, these schools have seen an influx in students, making the schools themselves harder to get into. As historically safety schools where everyone can get in, more demand means stricter…

Sometimes it’s difficult for me to remember every place has a history regardless if residents care for it or not. However, it’s the most difficult when I think about the borough I live in, The Bronx. During my senior year of high school, I received an invitation from The Bronx County Historical Society to join an event. The society invited valedictorians from every Bronx High School to attend this awards reception. This event took place outside next to the Museum of Bronx History where the hosts…

Rhapsody Final The original song I had wanted to write about was Sweet Child O Mine by Guns N Roses. After further analyses of this piece of music, I realized it would not have enough contrast for me to write multiple pages. After much thought and consideration, the new piece I chose to write about is Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. Bohemian Rhapsody has plenty of dramatic contrasts, frequent shifts in tempo, and changes in rhythmic character from section to section. The piece was written by…
