December 15


After doing a brief review of yesterday's work, I assigned the following:
1. Read pages 144-153 in World Issues in the Global Community

2. Take notes on Rostow's Stages of Development (pages 144-145)

3. Answer the following questions from the text: pg. 145 Q24, pg. 149 Q30, pg. 151 Q33

4. Define the following key terms:

  • infrastructure
  • automation
  • capital-intensive
  • urbanization
  • entrepreneur

You wrote an in-class essay today. If you missed today's class, you'll have to write this essay next week because tomorrow's 55 minute class period is too short. If you're in Social 10-1 please try to remember to bring a non-perishable food item to class for the food drive.

Just a Question, Its kinda random, What is a Bill called when it has been Introduced by an Opposition Party?

Kevin Gilchrist said...

A private member's bill would be the best way to describe it.

Anotherr quick Question, what is the Not-Withstandinmg Clause agian?

The Leaders debate was great, Paul Martin did a good job. As usual the Conservatives did nothing but attack others.

The Liberals are the best for Canada.

Any bill introduced by someone other than the PM or a Cabinet minister would be called a private member's bill. Thanks Ilyas for the link to Wikipedia.
