If you were in class today, you would know that we continued talking about the key concept of illiberalism, specifically post-9/11 anti-terrorism legislation. We focused on the USA PATRIOT Act today by watching a CBC News in Review on 9/11 and the passage of the Patriot Act. I tried to emphasize today that 9/11 had domestic impacts on the United States, with the passage of the Patriot Act (illiberalism), and international impacts with the imposition of liberalism in Afghanistan and Iraq as part of a larger "war on terror". Please remember that your Chapter 10 Test is tomorrow, please see the study guide below. Your Civil Rights Movement Assignment is due tomorrow as well.

I talked briefly about the internment of "enemy aliens" in WW I, and the internment of Japanese-Canadians during WW II. It is strongly recommended that you review the lecture on the internment of Japanese-Canadians during WWII on pages 267-271 in the Social 30-1 course books.

I did a homework check on your Chapter 9 Key Terms and collected your Civil Rights Movement Assignments. We continued exploring the theme of illiberalism today, by looking at post-9/11 anti-terrorism legislation. In order to better understand why the United States and other western democracies passed legislation that began to restrict individual liberties, we need to put 9/11 in historical context. In order to do this, I had to show part of a CBC News in Review retrospective called "9/11: The Day that Changed the World". I also showed part of a documentary called "Unconstitutional", which shows the implementation of the Patriot Act and its impact. I also had you read an article from the BBC on CCTV security cameras, and I showed you a couple of YouTube videos on CCTV cameras (one an excerpt from a BBC documentary, and the other from the HBO series Vice).

You wrote your Unit 2 WRA II Essay today in the Blenheim Room. I'd like to have these marked by Tuesday or Wednesday.  I gave you some notes on liberalism, illiberalism and the War Measures Act. The three situations in which the Canadian government could you use were war, invasion and insurrection. The War Measures Act was used three times in Canadian history: World War I (1914-1918), which led to the internment of so-called "enemy aliens". The War Measures Act is also used during World War II (1939-1945) to intern Japanese-Canadians in response to the Japanese surprise attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. The Canadian federal government also used the War Measures Act in October 1970 during the FLQ Crisis, with the Quebec government claiming that they were facing an "apprehended insurrection". As you watched today's video from the Turning Points in History series, you were to complete the film study fill in the blanks. In today's video we looked at the FLQ crisis, this is the interview on the steps of Parliament that features Trudeau's "just watch me" speech. It's an interesting little debate that is waged being Trudeau and the reporters over the issue on giving up or losing civil liberties in order to ensure security.
