I collected your Political Cartoon Analysis Assignments at the beginning of class. Most of you handed it in on time, and were rewarded with a homework check stamp. If you didn't hand it in today, please make sure that you hand it in ASAP. You lose 10% each day that an assignment is late.
I had some handouts for you today, one on "Dictatorship and the Individual" (I told you to put a star on this page, because I think that it will be really useful). I also gave you a comparison sheet on Mussolini and Hitler. Lastly, I gave you an assignment that is due tomorrow called "Dictatorships: Rule by Elites" that many of you were able to finish during the class time provided.

I collected your Chapter 17 definitions and questions at the end of class today. I also delivered a presentation on the Canadian Identity. This is the third presentation, and the last one the Canadian Identity that you will be receiving from me. I will send out this lecture today, so please let me know if you don't receive it. Please print it off for homework check credit tomorrow. We also watched a bit of Rick Mercer's "Talking to Americans", which we will finish tomorrow.

Mr Gilchrist This Question is from Tuesday March 13 but I could only find the one for march 12 but anyways I found all the dates from that internet sheet you gave us except the one for Sept. 12 isn't on the list that they have on the website. Do you know where I could find this?
Did we have to do a Septemeber 12th? cuz the last one on the sheet says September 6th??
I dunno what sheet says sept 12 but i was talking just about todays date cuz his blog thing only goes till monday there isnt one for today is wat i meant :P
Did we have to do a Septemeber 12th? cuz the last one on the sheet says September 6th??

No, you don't have to find September 12th. The September 6th date is the date when Labour Day fell in 2004. In 2007, it will fall on September 3rd. There's a chart at http://www.canadianheritage.gc.ca/progs/cpsc-ccsp/jfa-ha/index_e.cfm that summarizes all the dates that you would need to know. Like I said in class, some dates are fixed holiday dates, and others fluctuate from year to year. Just look at the dates that are near to the 2004 dates and you should be able to figure it out.
