When the four initial colonies of Canada‚ being: Ontario‚Quebec‚ Nova Scotia and New Brunswick confederation in 1867 ; there was still much debate for the remaining colonies on whether to join. There is definitely an argument for both sides‚ but in my opinion --- I believe confederation was a good thing. One advantage of confederation was that when the colonies were united as a country‚ we would be able to fend off attacks from the South. Also it would act as a symbol to intimidate the Americans

When the Bible says that “Jesus was with God” it refers to the wisdom that was with God. This shows the intimacy of God and his

Iraq invasions The Iraq war was a horrible thing. It caused many things to happen. I’m against going to war with them because there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq as the US government claimed. One of the main reasons listed by George W Bush for the war was to secure Iraq’s chemical and biological weapons‚ which did not even exist.
