Hand in Hand A wise African proverb states, “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together” (“African” 1). This philosophical quotation encompasses an important message on how to address one of the world’s most prevalent and devastating problems: the Syrian Refugee Crisis. As millions of Syrians are displaced by the Syrian Civil War, they attempt to seek refuge in surrounding foreign nations. So far, the countries of the world have only addressed the crisis by deciding the…

Local magazines and newsprints are enough to cover local needs and carry the Canadian contents. Allowing the big news media corporations of…

In “1984” a big social group is the Inner Party. The Inner party is the head department of the community. They are practically the government. They are the ones who decide the rules, decide the changes, decide the work hours for every member and most importantly they decide who gets vaporized.

Proles aren’t members or comrades they are “lowlifes” that live…

I believe that the government has some federal duty to monitor internet content. Since the internet is such a profitable place to buy and sell goods we, as a country, need some sort of policy of the government's involvement in monitoring the internet. We are able to do, search, buy and sell practically anything on the internet so there has to be some sort of limit to the things that are on the internet. In the cases of someone buying guns and such those people being linked with terrorism, seeing…

to maintain and preserve a nation. Thus, burdensome laws and rules should be imposed on people.
