what was the NEP and how did it effect western and eastern relations? eheheh
It affected the western and eastern relation because the west thought they were getting the shorter end of the stick because they had to lower the oil prices to the rest of Canada. THe oil prices were around 30$ per barrel and Canada wanted the west to sell the oil at 15$ per barrel.
equilization payments is where provinces help eachother out by giving them money. provinces such as Ontario and Alberta have higher tax bases, and thus give most of the money to the federal government to be spread to the other "have not" provinces.
The quebec gov't wanted to give all Quebeckers jobs so that they could have complete control over taxes in the province. Also, they wanted to give more high paying jobs to francophones, rather than anglophones. I believe the third thing was that they wanted complete control of how the french language was used in the province.
The BNA act was Canada's first constitution. It remained that way until 1982, when Trudeau got Canada it's own constitution, and its Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Britain had no control over the changes to the constitution anymore.
well there is 5 but to name 4 would be: 1) United Farmers of Alberta 1909 Henry Wisewood, Irene Parlby improve social and economic status of farmers 2) Progressive Party 1920 Violet McNaughton reduce protective tariffs 3) Social Credit (1930s mid) William Aberthard give credit, national divident 4) Reform Party 1987 Preston Manning reduce government spendings
the four parties were the: 1.united farmers of alberta 1909 and their leaders were henry wise wood and irene parlby. 2.Progessive party 1920 and the leader was Niolet McNaughton 3.Co-opertive commonwealth federation 1932 and the leader was T.C Douglas 4.Social credit 1930s leader was William Aberhart. 5.Reform party of Canada 1987 leader was Preston Manning.
Parti Quebecois was started by Rene Levesque...i believe in 1976. They were elected as the leading party in quebec in 1980, and held a referendum regarding Quebec's separation from Canada in 1982. The PQ was later lead by Jaques Parizeau (1993), Lucien Bouchard, and Bernard Landry(2003)
What were the points of view for the francophones anglophones during Mulroney's attempts to get Quebec to sign the constitution (Meech Lake and Charlottetown accords)
quebecers wanted a distinct society, and more priviledges while the british/english thought that quebec shouldn't deserve such power, and were both rejected by canada.
That's true (about the GST), most parties going for the federal election since have proposed some kind of cut to the GST or complete elimination, but somehow when they get elected it never gets done.
they wanted to sway the government to let quebec seperate with violence. kidnapped british trade commisioner James Cross, and quebec labour minister Peirre LaPorte, Laporte was later found dead, and also there were bombings
The FLQ's ultimate goal was to force the government to allow Quebec's separation. They planted bombs, and in 1970 they kidnapped trade commisioner James Cross, and Quebec labour minister Pierre Laporte. (at least i think it is 1970)
The money from GST is way too lucrative for the government to get rid of it, so even though the PM who created it got thrown out in the election after, those politicians probably worship his name in secret.
The act of union in 1841 was suggested by Lord Durham after his study to why the colonies were in unrest. It joined the two colonies (upper and lower canada) into one. Lord Durham believed this would help assimilate French culture into the English majority.
The act of union also gave the colonies responsible government (more independence). And by the way, who is pumping all those questions out (Vikrum...!)?
BC: victoria Alberta: edmonton Sask: Regina Manitoba: winnipeg Ontario: toronto quebec: quebec Nova scotia: halifax PEI: charlotte town New Brunswick:Fredricton Newfoundland: St. John's Nunavut: Iqaluit NWT: yellowknife Yukon:whitehorse thanks for that long ass question haha
Obscure geography questions: What is the name of the large island in the Gulf of St. Lawrence (NOT PEI). What is the name of the bridge that spans between PEI and Nova Scotia?
History question: What major event in history did the Quebec Act help begin (hint: the local English were NOT happy with the allowance of more independence to the French, and also because they were not allowed to expand westward).
haha this is a guess but, lauriers "sunny ways" compromise said that if numbers warranted it both catholic church and french instruction could continue
Answer to history: The Quebec Act was passed to make the French people under British rule happy, but it made the English people there unhappy, namely, the Americans. This was one straw piled on a whole bunch of others, including various taxes, and eventually it was simply too much for the Americans. They rebelled: American revolution (1775-1783).
sovereign association: suggested that quebec become a independant country and that the laws of canada would nolonger apply to quebec. the party quebecios started it which were led by levesque
Regional disparity causes: Physical characteristics - flat land is waaay easier to build buildings on. Natural resources - if you're swimming in oil, you're swimming in cash. Location - being in the middle of the Sahara doesn't get you much trade. Urbanization - notice all the major industrialized countries have CITIES? Transportation - you've gotta get stuff around. Technology - a stone age civilization isn't much of an economic power. Labour force - who works in the factories? Not robots, not yet.
Who? Who is this Devin you speak of? And by the way, I've been answering my own questions, since none of you guys seem to bother (spoilsports). Western Alienation started because the Hudson's Bay Co. owned the lands of the west, but didn't care much about the native inhabitants' well being (companies caring only for profit, surprise surprise). It only got worse after the Canadian government bought the land - but didn't consult the people living there (just imagine someone buying your house without telling you).
NO one's going to answer my rhetorical?! Oh well, I'd guess that if they held another referendum it would be really close, but probably a stay in Canada. (unless the current feds mess things up REAL bad). A lot of Quebecers seem not to keen about the issue.
ok, vikram here is the answer haha the metis made a list of rights, and the prime minister passed a bill that made the province of Manitoba. Then the govt threatened their land rights, and were ignoring the metis, so they resorted to violence. Reil then got tried for treason and was hung, and SJAM could have saved him but was under to much pressure from Ontario, so he took their side
You have to wonder where the happy medium is... In almost all political confrontations between Quebec and the feds, Anglophones think the Francophones have WAY too much power, but the Francophones think they don't have enough! Anyone else see the dilema? Anyway, what were the terms offered in the Meech Lake Accord and the Charlottetown Accord? Also, who didn't sign on to the constitution repatriation and why?
I will answer that will quebec join/leave question. I think that it'll be a lot like the 1980 referendum but a lot closer this time. I don't think there r enough people in quebec willing to seperate.
WOW... over 100 comments in an hour... we must be geeks... And to answer my own question, Quebec wanted s w e e p i n g constititutional changes before it would sign on.
The specifics of the Meech Lake Accord was to give Quebec special status as a "protector of French society in Canada". The Charlottetown Accord was "sweeping constitutional changes" and a "distinct society clause" for Quebec. Man, it was such a huge offer... Quebec should learn from labour unions and accept the deal while the government is generous (or desperate).
The idea in the Constitutional Act was to separate the French and the English of Canada so they wouldn't get into trouble with each other. You see, just because the loyalists were loyal to Britain didn't mean they would be happy living with British subjects who really were French people conquered into the British empire. The division of Canada into 2 colonies allowed each group to live in peace (just like North and South Korea... hence the Act of Union a while later).
Quebec learn from the NHL? The NHL was locked out for a year... so that means Quebec would separate from Canada for a year?!?! Imagine the confusion, the horror, the swooning politicians. And what is a first minister conference?
You probably don't have to know about the battles, but you do have to know the war: Which war did which treaty end that the plains of abraham was part of?
there are like 2 comments coming in every minute, and it is you, because you're helping add to it. Exactly what kind of sovereign deal did the PQ suggest, especially in the second referendum?
no, that just means that they had the bad luck to stand where a musket ball happened to pass by, and their death is no more heroic than any other soldier who died on the battlefield. And answer my PQ question already!
pq regerendum? uhhh the important 1980 one? lol its the one where pq asks quebecers to vote for whether they want to stay in canada or not GEEZE hahaha
HAHAHA!!! SMART GENERALS LEAD FROM THE BACK, SO THEY DON'T GET KILLED. Think about it, if you're a general you have a lot of responsibility, and if you get killed who's going to lead your army? It takes a lot more years to train a good general than a common soldier, and besides, one single man fighting will make a lot less difference than one general leading his troops effectively. While that doesn't mean good generals always lead from the back, or that generals who lead from the back are good, it certainly helps.
Well, Vikram is going to read some ppts hahahaha...good luck on the test tomorrow boys and girls, although i think its just chris, devin melissa and i here :)
The PQ's idea was essentially that Quebec would separate culturally and socially, but remain in the economy of Canada. This would include using Canadian currency and trading with Canada. Anglophone critics picked on this, their main argument "then what difference would this sovereignty make?"
Yes, generals tour their lines to boost morale, but the important thing is not to allow unnessary risk to come to officers. Example: In WWI at first many volunteers to the armies were educated young men pressured by peers and girlfriends to join the "glorious" war. The result? At the end of the war the armies were low on officers, since these officers would be trained from the educated people. The importance of officers can't be underestimated: they provide leadership and have more experience. The average drafted soldier is simply a walking, eating, fighting machine that if given the choice would rather relax in camp than go fight in the trenches.
regional disparity is the inequality or difference in standard of living, wages, and econmic factors. there are also indicators of disparity but that takes too long to type and by the time im done, someone might have already answered it ahahha
So what do you have to know about regional disparity??????????????????? So what do you have to know about regional disparity??????????????????? So what do you have to know about regional disparity??????????????????? So what do you have to know about regional disparity??????????????????? So what do you have to know about regional disparity???????????????????
regional disparity is when one province or region has more resources/cash/etc. than another They make it up through equalization payments. right now, alberta and ontario are the only provinces who pay them. There are several indicators. wages...education...unemployment rate...cost of living...standard of living
Okay, it's time for me to go. But first, food for thought: If the French had won the Seven Years War and took over the British colonies, do you think we would be having the same problems - with Ontario separatists? It seems to me people are always imposing their government and culture on others - and people are never happy with their current situation either.

what was the NEP and how did it effect western and eastern relations?
eheheh
The NEP is the Nation Energy Program. I have no idea how it effected western and eastern relations.
it made west/east relations tense; and the west felt alienated/treated badly compared to the rest of canada.
It affected the western and eastern relation because the west thought they were getting the shorter end of the stick because they had to lower the oil prices to the rest of Canada. THe oil prices were around 30$ per barrel and Canada wanted the west to sell the oil at 15$ per barrel.
oh, ok, thanks.
What are equalization payments and how do they affect Canada's Nationalism?
equilization payments is where provinces help eachother out by giving them money. provinces such as Ontario and Alberta have higher tax bases, and thus give most of the money to the federal government to be spread to the other "have not" provinces.
happy vikram?
what, who and when was the Quiet Revolution?
yes i am happy joe
Jean lesage, 1960-1966
The quebec gov't wanted to give all Quebeckers jobs so that they could have complete control over taxes in the province. Also, they wanted to give more high paying jobs to francophones, rather than anglophones. I believe the third thing was that they wanted complete control of how the french language was used in the province.
O about NEP and the oil prices, Trudeau agreed to a 2 $ increase to the $15 but said that 10% of the profits had to go to the federal gov.
impressive
What were the four parties that formed to prevent western alienation, and who were their leaders?
What was the BNA act
BNA act is just another name for confederation (1867)
The BNA act was Canada's first constitution. It remained that way until 1982, when Trudeau got Canada it's own constitution, and its Charter of Rights and Freedoms. Britain had no control over the changes to the constitution anymore.
well there is 5 but to name 4 would be:
1) United Farmers of Alberta 1909
Henry Wisewood, Irene Parlby
improve social and economic status of farmers
2) Progressive Party 1920
Violet McNaughton
reduce protective tariffs
3) Social Credit (1930s mid)
William Aberthard
give credit, national divident
4) Reform Party 1987
Preston Manning
reduce government spendings
I believe its spelled Aberhart
what, when, who was did the PQ involve? and what when who did the Bloc Quebecois involve?
the four parties were the:
1.united farmers of alberta 1909 and their leaders were henry wise wood and irene parlby.
2.Progessive party 1920 and the leader was Niolet McNaughton
3.Co-opertive commonwealth federation 1932 and the leader was T.C Douglas
4.Social credit 1930s leader was William Aberhart.
5.Reform party of Canada 1987 leader was Preston Manning.
Now....what were their policies or goals huuuuuh?
lol aberhart,calm down peoples ahha
Parti Quebecois was started by Rene Levesque...i believe in 1976. They were elected as the leading party in quebec in 1980, and held a referendum regarding Quebec's separation from Canada in 1982. The PQ was later lead by Jaques Parizeau (1993), Lucien Bouchard, and Bernard Landry(2003)
anyone else wanna do BQ?
i already did it
really? where
look up
What were the points of view for the francophones anglophones during Mulroney's attempts to get Quebec to sign the constitution (Meech Lake and Charlottetown accords)
like already did the policies not BQ
anyways BQ was lead by Lucien Bouchard in 1993 and it's federal PQ is provincial
ahh okay gotcha! hahaha
quebecers wanted a distinct society, and more priviledges while the british/english thought that quebec shouldn't deserve such power, and were both rejected by canada.
very good :D
during the manitoba schools question who was the prime minister and the premier of manitoba?
Anyone know which prime minister introduced GST?
The prime minister for the manitoba schools question was Wilfred Laurier, and the premier of Manitoba at that time was Thomas Greenway
why would you need to know GST?
i dont' know could be any of the prime ministers since all they want is revenue and money for personal gain :D
PM: Laurier, Premier: Greenway
for the GST question, i recommend a google :D
Why were the FLQ carrying out terrorist activities, and name key activities that they carried out. :D
That's true (about the GST), most parties going for the federal election since have proposed some kind of cut to the GST or complete elimination, but somehow when they get elected it never gets done.
Stephen Harper promised one. I seriously doubt that he will fulfill that promise, if any.
they wanted to sway the government to let quebec seperate with violence. kidnapped british trade commisioner James Cross, and quebec labour minister Peirre LaPorte, Laporte was later found dead, and also there were bombings
The FLQ's ultimate goal was to force the government to allow Quebec's separation. They planted bombs, and in 1970 they kidnapped trade commisioner James Cross, and Quebec labour minister Pierre Laporte. (at least i think it is 1970)
how fun, people answerin the same question, sigh
the flq wanted quebec to separate and they kidnnaped james cross and pierre laporte (which they killed)
what was the Act of Union?
lol totally
The money from GST is way too lucrative for the government to get rid of it, so even though the PM who created it got thrown out in the election after, those politicians probably worship his name in secret.
Act of union (1841) : Durhams's suggestion to unite colonies and grant responsible government
HAHA i am sure they do worship.
The act of union was proposed by Lord Durham, and made an official act in 1841. It joined upper and lower Canada as one.
THe FLQ came around in 1969, but their terrorist attacks began to be noticed in 1970 (August, I think)
The act of union in 1841 was suggested by Lord Durham after his study to why the colonies were in unrest. It joined the two colonies (upper and lower canada) into one. Lord Durham believed this would help assimilate French culture into the English majority.
is GST gonna be on the test?
did he even mention the GST prime minister stuff in class?
The act of union also gave the colonies responsible government (more independence). And by the way, who is pumping all those questions out (Vikrum...!)?
NO hahaha...random discussion...sorry
no, GST isn't on the test, just a discussion point.
KJ way to spell my name wrong, and no, its not me btw

Obscure geography questions:
What is the name of the large island in the Gulf of St. Lawrence (NOT PEI).
What is the name of the bridge that spans between PEI and Nova Scotia?
Lakes: i guess u could also include Georgian bay...but yeah
1960- 1970 was when the FLQ was active
WHOA! who swore on the blog
hahahhahaha
History question:
What major event in history did the Quebec Act help begin (hint: the local English were NOT happy with the allowance of more independence to the French, and also because they were not allowed to expand westward).
i will not even attempt those obscurities
GEORGEAN BAY! That's a bay not a lake, it is part of Lake Huron.
hahahhahahahahahha
okay focus people
lol yes sorry for my vulger language
Answers to geography:
Anticosti Island.
Confederation Bridge.
What was the compromise PM Laurier reached in the MB schoos ?, and what were its terms.
ooo good question
yeah, well, answer it!
catholic schools could take place and so could french teacings?
haha this is a guess but, lauriers "sunny ways" compromise said that if numbers warranted it both catholic church and french instruction could continue
i think thats right :D
YES!
Now, what is meant by "sovereign association", and which party coined it?
what are the causes or regional disparity? (yes long question i kno)
Answer to history:
The Quebec Act was passed to make the French people under British rule happy, but it made the English people there unhappy, namely, the Americans. This was one straw piled on a whole bunch of others, including various taxes, and eventually it was simply too much for the Americans. They rebelled: American revolution (1775-1783).
sovereign association: suggested that quebec become a independant country and that the laws of canada would nolonger apply to quebec. the party quebecios started it which were led by levesque
i have a question. who is asking those history/geography questions. and what is your msn haha
This question is exclusively for KJ because she feels left out.
Name the key points of the Riel Rebellions
sweet melissa. i am adding you up asap
regional dispariy causes:
phy. features
natural resources
labour force
urbanization
technology
transportation
location
Regional disparity causes:
Physical characteristics - flat land is waaay easier to build buildings on.
Natural resources - if you're swimming in oil, you're swimming in cash.
Location - being in the middle of the Sahara doesn't get you much trade.
Urbanization - notice all the major industrialized countries have CITIES?
Transportation - you've gotta get stuff around.
Technology - a stone age civilization isn't much of an economic power.
Labour force - who works in the factories? Not robots, not yet.
haha
the canadian government took over the hudsons bay co. and the land around it, and they didn't negotiate with the Metis.
i am asking those geography questions and history questions, but sorry I don't have an MSN (gasp!).
KJ i believe there is more than that
i believe so to
Devin, is that you?
Rhetorical: If the PQ return to power and they hold another referendum, what do you think the votes would be?
what are the root causes of western alienation
the governmnt bought the land from the Hudson's Bay Company and the Métis wanted to make sure the rights of Westerners were assured. They took the measuring chains and other stuff to get the attention of the government
western alienation is viewed by westerners (duh)
They think that politicians think that the west is a large vast land to be exploited
Who? Who is this Devin you speak of? And by the way, I've been answering my own questions, since none of you guys seem to bother (spoilsports).
Western Alienation started because the Hudson's Bay Co. owned the lands of the west, but didn't care much about the native inhabitants' well being (companies caring only for profit, surprise surprise). It only got worse after the Canadian government bought the land - but didn't consult the people living there (just imagine someone buying your house without telling you).
sweet. good job chris
hahah nice analogy devin
melissa, what's the order of PG leaders from Jean Lesage?
I knew it was you devin. I have been answering for a while lol
PG?
NO one's going to answer my rhetorical?! Oh well, I'd guess that if they held another referendum it would be really close, but probably a stay in Canada. (unless the current feds mess things up REAL bad). A lot of Quebecers seem not to keen about the issue.
PQ sry
ok, vikram
here is the answer haha
the metis made a list of rights, and the prime minister passed a bill that made the province of Manitoba. Then the govt threatened their land rights, and were ignoring the metis, so they resorted to violence.
Reil then got tried for treason and was hung, and SJAM could have saved him but was under to much pressure from Ontario, so he took their side
It was a rhetorical question.
I think that means we aren't supposed to answer.
I think what you were thinking of was hypothetical?
uh pg? lol ok pg....levesque, parizeau and then bochard...right?
haha good job KJ
anyone gonna answer my question?
levesque, parizeau, bouchard, and then landry :D
k never mind
didn't refresh it lol
levesque was the one with staph right?
You have to wonder where the happy medium is... In almost all political confrontations between Quebec and the feds, Anglophones think the Francophones have WAY too much power, but the Francophones think they don't have enough! Anyone else see the dilema?
Anyway, what were the terms offered in the Meech Lake Accord and the Charlottetown Accord? Also, who didn't sign on to the constitution repatriation and why?
the flesh eating disease
why thank you
it was hard work
nope that was bouchard with the cane...
flesh eating disease
Bouchard was the one who battled flesh eating disease (his leg was amputated, shown with a cane in political cartoons).
o ok thx
I have no idea why Quebec didn't sign the Constitution repatriation but they didn't
I will answer that will quebec join/leave question. I think that it'll be a lot like the 1980 referendum but a lot closer this time. I don't think there r enough people in quebec willing to seperate.
Meech Lake and Charlottetown just gave the french more power and they would be able to do their own religion and stuff
they wanted changes first
WOW... over 100 comments in an hour... we must be geeks...
And to answer my own question, Quebec wanted s w e e p i n g constititutional changes before it would sign on.
that's why quebc didn't sign the constitution right?
hehe guess who started the chain reaction...thats right...your friendly neighbourhood joe and vikram
yeppers chris
The specifics of the Meech Lake Accord was to give Quebec special status as a "protector of French society in Canada". The Charlottetown Accord was "sweeping constitutional changes" and a "distinct society clause" for Quebec. Man, it was such a huge offer... Quebec should learn from labour unions and accept the deal while the government is generous (or desperate).
oo i have a question.
What was the purpose of the Constitutional act?
(besides making upper and lower canada)
(if there is any)
lol Quebec should learn from the NHL and accept the first offer so they can actually get the best deal
ok...who was the most unpopular Prime minister? and which 2 major events did he hold?
to give upper and lower canada separate democratic assemblys and ideas
was it mulroney because of the meech lake accord and the charlottetown accord
HAHA the most unpopular prime minister?
kind of speculation with that one.
But anyways, i think it was Mulroney and the Meech Lake and Charlottetown accords?
am i correct melissa?
The idea in the Constitutional Act was to separate the French and the English of Canada so they wouldn't get into trouble with each other. You see, just because the loyalists were loyal to Britain didn't mean they would be happy living with British subjects who really were French people conquered into the British empire. The division of Canada into 2 colonies allowed each group to live in peace (just like North and South Korea... hence the Act of Union a while later).
Thank you devin :) :love:
yes yes u are ahhah
do we have to know the stuff about the plains of abraham battle like Wolfe and Montcalm? in 1763
Quebec learn from the NHL? The NHL was locked out for a year... so that means Quebec would separate from Canada for a year?!?! Imagine the confusion, the horror, the swooning politicians.
And what is a first minister conference?
a first minister conference is where the prime minister meets with all the premiers
is it me or is there like 2 comments coming in every minute
no, the nhl took a worse deal than the first one offered. so quebec should just leave. they distub national unity and they disturb me! lol
You probably don't have to know about the battles, but you do have to know the war: Which war did which treaty end that the plains of abraham was part of?
omg chris OF COURSE NOT thts grade 8 stuff. but yeah i really liked those 2 guys. they were soooo...battle crazed
Treaty of paris, and seven years war :D
the treaty of paris ended the seven years war between britain and france
there are like 2 comments coming in every minute, and it is you, because you're helping add to it.
Exactly what kind of sovereign deal did the PQ suggest, especially in the second referendum?
battle crazed was wrong. they were just very good commanders who were good at what they did
we are so pro chris
And by the way, "those 2 guys" both died on the battlefield.
we disscussed this in class, but its a good question...whats the diff between a federal election and a referndum? ahaha kinda easy
no, wolfe died after the battle i think and montcalm died during the battle
well, not exactly on the battlefield, I think Montcalm was carried into the city and died there.
we are so off topic...someone answer the PQ question please :)
fderal election is voting a new government and referendum is approving a new law
yes devin..i kno...THATS WHY THEY'RE BATTLE CRAZED hahah and thats why they're so cool
what is the pq question?
Where's Mr.Gilchrist?
MELISSA! PQ REFERENDUM QUESTION PLEASE? do you know it? because i don't :(
i think Mr. Gilchrist has class and volleyball today.
the PQ question was posted at 10:20
no, that just means that they had the bad luck to stand where a musket ball happened to pass by, and their death is no more heroic than any other soldier who died on the battlefield.
And answer my PQ question already!
THANK YOU DEVIN!
pq regerendum? uhhh the important 1980 one? lol its the one where pq asks quebecers to vote for whether they want to stay in canada or not GEEZE hahaha
well, that means that they were good generals and lead from the front, not from behind
NOOOO MELISSA! 10:20 referendum question
ahhah devin ur so funny..
i guess ur right..BUT THEY ARE STILL COOL ahah
"Penses-tu que le province de Québec va devenir une pays souverign qui a ses lois de lui même" and some other stuff
for the 10:20 question
haha okay thank you chris...its a good thing i know SOME french
i think
sarcasm?
HAHAHA!!! SMART GENERALS LEAD FROM THE BACK, SO THEY DON'T GET KILLED. Think about it, if you're a general you have a lot of responsibility, and if you get killed who's going to lead your army? It takes a lot more years to train a good general than a common soldier, and besides, one single man fighting will make a lot less difference than one general leading his troops effectively. While that doesn't mean good generals always lead from the back, or that generals who lead from the back are good, it certainly helps.
Well, Vikram is going to read some ppts hahahaha...good luck on the test tomorrow boys and girls, although i think its just chris, devin melissa and i here :)
ohhhh hahahah sorry i dont kno....
i think it was in the video we watched
good luck to you too vikram and cya in math lol
and smart generals would do tours of the front lines to raise morale of troops too
omg....i guess u really dont like those guys do u devin? ahahha anyways...
chris do u kno the answer to the 10:20 question?
The PQ's idea was essentially that Quebec would separate culturally and socially, but remain in the economy of Canada. This would include using Canadian currency and trading with Canada. Anglophone critics picked on this, their main argument "then what difference would this sovereignty make?"
For Western alienation, what does the NEP say or do to alienate westerners?
Penses-tu que le province de Québec dois devenir une pays souverign qui a ses lois de lui même" and some other stuff
for the 10:20 question
Translation: Do you think the province should become a soverign country and have its own constitution...
So what do you have to know about regional disparity???????????????????
chris...scroll to top.
devin...is that the answer to the question?
for those of you who don't understand french geeze
Yes, generals tour their lines to boost morale, but the important thing is not to allow unnessary risk to come to officers. Example: In WWI at first many volunteers to the armies were educated young men pressured by peers and girlfriends to join the "glorious" war. The result? At the end of the war the armies were low on officers, since these officers would be trained from the educated people. The importance of officers can't be underestimated: they provide leadership and have more experience. The average drafted soldier is simply a walking, eating, fighting machine that if given the choice would rather relax in camp than go fight in the trenches.

regional disparity is when one province or region has more resources/cash/etc. than another They make it up through equalization payments. right now, alberta and ontario are the only provinces who pay them. There are several indicators. wages...education...unemployment rate...cost of living...standard of living

Okay, it's time for me to go. But first, food for thought: If the French had won the Seven Years War and took over the British colonies, do you think we would be having the same problems - with Ontario separatists? It seems to me people are always imposing their government and culture on others - and people are never happy with their current situation either.
