Canadian Citizenship Assignment

In Canada deprivation of citizenship has a long history. There are many grounds you can be deprived of citizenship and the grounds are changing.

I don't think they achieved full citizenship because they still faved segregation, they don't have complete rights, there was racism. Some ways they faced segregation were their public spaces were separate and more run down than rights. Blacks couldn't go the same places or do the same things as whites with whites. A lot of people were hostile toward them because they had been taking there jobs. Although the 14 amendment said they had full citizenship they didn't because they still couldn't vote . Another way they weren't full citizens was they couldn't serve in a jury because they were former slaves. One way they faced racism was with the ku klux klan (kkk) because they wanted to drive them out of a political life. The ku klux klan (kkk)

All Americans got the right to vote in 1924, when the Congress passed an American Indian Citizenship act. That was the year the Native Americans finally got their full United States citizenship. “The congressional act American Indian Citizenship Act of 1924 made all Native Americans citizens of the United States, with full voting rights. For Native Americans, this law was an important step toward political equality with other Americans” (Source 1 Pearson excerpt). The United States gave the Native people the right to vote or their citizenship as a thank you for their support in the First World War.

The Luckyday Citizenship program is an amazing opportunity to receive financial aid for college, and an opportunity to bring in students who show a passion for community involvement. I am interested in the program because it will bring me together with like-minded people who share the same interests and goals as me. It appeals to me because I want to meet people who want to get involved and do fun and helpful things for the community. I want to meet genuinely nice people with a passion for helping others. I want to meet people with skills and abilities that they use to do positive things. What I want to bring to Southern Miss and the Hattiesburg community is my passion for playing music and my desire to be involved.

If it were up to you, and you had the choice whether or not to give undocumented citizens a chance at citizenship, would you? Many people believe that they should not have a chance at citizenship because they came here illegally. Every person has their own opinion on this topic. This debate is one of many debates going on in between the candidates or even the politicians, but of course they all have their own views and reasons on it. Everyone should consider that they should because either we are hurting families or they can help improve our economy. In the next three paragraphs this argument will be influencing you to side with my claim, that undocumented citizens should get a pathway to citizenship.

Many people do not take the time to get to know their professor. They just take the course just to pass and that is all. I had the honor to get to know my professor. I interviewed professor Fasil Cherenet who teaches American Government in the Political Science Department. He moved here from Ethiopia and gain a U.S. Citizenship. Now being my professor he has shared some of his life with me to tell to you.

I am writing this letter on the subject of considering to reopen my Citizenship application file. The reason of this is because I have never received my second invitation to attend an Oath of Citizenship Ceremony to become a Canadian Citizen. I am very sad to inform, and I do apologize that I couldn’t be present at the Ceremony after your invitation. As of my knowledge the letter was returned to the office, therefore it was never delivered to me. Evidently it's nobody's fault, but a miscommunication or some sort of mistake at Canada Post that led us to this. I ask you to please look over my file and reconsider to reopen my application, since I am eagerly anticipating becoming a Canadian Citizen. I have attached a copy of my last letter

Immigrating to Canada six years ago has given me many opportunities. Being able to adapt to a new country, culture and learning a new language takes time and courage and a positive attitude. I have struggled learning to speak and write English, but despite that, I have demonstrated confidence in my actions and I have continued to make progress. Learning to cooperate with everyone with empathy has helped me gain self-reliance, confidence, and courage to help everyone regardless of their race, gender or beliefs. The word volunteer was not in my vocabulary until I moved to Canada, to which I am so grateful to have learned.

Poems communicate emotions and feelings, which put connection to the readers.

Canada’s Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) determines whether or not someone is eligible to immigrate to Canada. There are 3 different sections of the policy, but in general, it factors in nationality, age, language ability, family members, education, work experience, and income. Within the different areas of the immigration policy, which are economic, family reunification, and refugee, there are more specific things looked at in applicants. In the economic area, applicants are rewarded points based on their level of education, ability to speak English and/or French, income, and previous work experience. The family reunification section includes spouses and children joining family members that are already living in Canada, or same-sex couples that are not legally married if there are restrictions in the country they are coming from. These immigrants have to provide proof and demonstrate that they are related to, married to, or in a committed relationship with the person they claim to be joining. A smaller portion of the immigrants coming to Canada are considered to be refugees. Refugees must be part of a humanitarian resettlement program, which is a Canadian program that helps people seeking protection outside of Canada with the help of international partners, or claim for asylum protection, which is where Canada provides protection for those who would be in danger if they returned to their own country.

Application for citizenship is different in every country and the United States and Canada demonstrate this fact. Although they both have similar basic structures, the U.S. system has more exceptions and a generally longer process. Both countries require Permanent Resident(PR) status and one must be 18 years of age or older to apply. They also both allow parents and guardians to apply for citizenship for their children and make exceptions to the general rules in those cases. While both require an extended physical presence in the country before they sign their application, Canadian law allows applicants to count days as a temporary resident or protected person towards that requirement whereas the United States does not; further, they differ in the details, as in the U.S., generally (there are exceptions), one must have not been out of the country for 30 months or more, must have not
