I am here today to show off one of the most youngest, politically-aware, individuals that I have ever seen. Apparently finding out his information about politics from everyday forms of media such as TV, newspapers, and internet, this boy can express a great understanding of his own countries laws, and most importantly, can use his brain…
On Saturday, September 14th 2013, a protest was held in Montreal to express their opposition to the proposed Charter of Quebec Values. The protest was pan-religious and featured people of different religious backgrounds. Though the Quebec Charter will be officially debated in the Quebec National Assembly, many Quebecois and Canadians expressed already expressed their views…
Calgarians know it took a huge amount of effort to clean up and get the grounds ready for the 2013 Calgary Stampede after the flood. Here’s a timeline of exactly how it went down.
http://youtu.be/Ni6W0bZlrdY Like most immigrant Canadians would often say when moving to Canada, they come here for freedom. Freedoms that their native country just doesn’t have. Here in Canada they find new livelihoods and in most situations, often feel more Canadian than their cultural background. Just like most major Canadian cities, Montreal has become a symbol…
With the proposed Charter of Quebec Values, many ask why would such a Charter be needed in Quebec or Canada for that matter. Our government promotes cultural identity and religious identity as something each individual is entitled to, but some say that the Charter totally goes against that sacred right. The history of Quebec could…
http://youtu.be/JbVXHGmnlvw New legislative action in La Belle Province could cause another rift and alienation within Canadian society. The Charter of Quebec Values is a planned charter by the current Parti Québécois government. A similar situation occurred in the beginning of the summer. With the Premier’s blessing, the Quebec soccer authority banned turbans from all official soccer…
Driving home from school one day listening to AM radio, an advertisement caught my attention. Apparently, a large US cell phone company is bringing their business to Canadian soil. Verizon, a giant US wireless company four times the size of Rogers, Bell, and TELUS combined, has officially intimidated the top cell phone companies in Canada.…
In June, the YYCFlood articles which our bloggers crafted in the matter of a few days reaffirmed how quick the internet had to react to current issues. We weren’t even out of the state of emergency as I was doing my blog article on how social media reacted to the Alberta Floods; my late additions…
I have always learned, that in order to figure out politics, you have to (excuse my language) wade through the BS to get to the political truth. Here is my interpretation of that truth. Tensions keep rising in Syria as the chemical attack from Aug 21 stresses the nations of the world. Over 1,300 have died…
An image used on Fort McMoney – Remember to Breath campaign (From Indiegogo) No, this is not an actual Travel Alberta Campaign. It’s a parody all about the Alberta Oil sands. You probably know, as Albertans, oil is the biggest thing in our economy. Travel Alberta’s real slogan is “Remember to breathe,” but with our tar sands and the pollution…
In this 21st century, it is uncommon that we, the younger generation, ever encounter situations in which we really need to engage the mind. With the obvious exception of schoolwork, instead of going outside and using our imaginations as we did in our early youth, we spend most of our leisurely time using the internet,…
One world: a world where everyone is happy, mingling together, celebrating the diversity, accepting the differences, promoting faith in kindness and humanity. In that world, every person had a reason to smile, and only one aim: to make that world a better place to live for everyone. But alas! It was just a dream. But…
