Did you know a rare debate about what are flag should look like happened during one summer in the House of Commons. Also back in 1965 the Canadian flag was created. What I consider to be the most important information that every Canadian should know is our Human Rights‚ Canada’s history‚ and our Systems of Government. These three key elements are what make Canada what it is today. Our human rights are very important to us in Canada and we even have a huge building in Winnipeg that focuses on human

Many events happened over the course of the twentieth century that made a significant difference in shaping Canada’s identity. Canada’s contribution to the British Commonwealth Air Training Plan helped form international unity between Canada and the Allied countries. The Cooperative Commonwealth Federation presented ideas that were later developed into very beneficial services Canadian citizens have today‚ allowing Canada to be self-dependent.

When it comes to “identity politics”‚ as with many controversial matters‚ there are always many pros and cons that come along with them. One of the pros is that “identity politics” build self worth when a minority member is offered more respect by the so-called mainstream. The minority could feel special and or important when given the respect they demand. Another pro is the bond that the groups have with one another. The groups can connect with each other through similar experiences and have the

other items that make them unique as a whole country. For instance‚ I believe that the Canadian flag is well known for the simplicity‚ its colours and the maple leaf. It is divided by three different columns. Two of those columns have the exact same width and the same colour that are red. The other column is white and wider because it has the maple leaf in the center of the flag. The way I view the Canadian flag is that is simple and easy to remember.

Is there a relationship between rising US unemployment and the rise of the Canadian dollar? Canada’s financial stability depends on the health of America’s economy‚ as international trade accounts for 45% of Canada’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and 79% of exports are to the United States. Canadian and American unemployment rates are positively correlated for that reason‚ as exemplified in early 2009. Canada’s unemployment rate quickly steepened as the United States’ rate gradually increased to

Cambridge defines identity as‚ ““the qualities of a person or group that make them different from others.” However‚ I believe that the word identity is quite abstract because it can not only mean different things to different people‚ but can also be expressed in different ways. A cultural aspect that has shaped‚ formed and influenced my identity is my religion.
