Change: The 1980s

After the Meech Lake Accord failed, Prime Minister Mulroney attempted to get Quebecs agreement for another Constitution with the Charlottetown Accord in 1992.

The 1980’s marked a period of great strength and ideology for the modern Republican Party and Conservative movement still revered in the 21st century. This period is marked by a man that represented and embodied the goals of their party, Ronal Reagan, who was elected to the office of President of the United States of America in 1981. His economic policies, communications strategies, and personality are traits that conservatives strive to emulate looking to him as the model Republican.

In my opinion the 1980's was one of the significant event in the 20th century that created the impetus for healthcare organizations to begin to adopt information systems. Although the use of health care information systems in the 1970s could be considered an extension of the applications used in the 1960s with a slight increase in the use of clinical applications, the 1980s saw an entirely different story. Sweeping changes in how Medicare reimbursed hospitals and others for services, coupled with the advent of the microcomputer, radically changed how health care information systems were viewed and used. In 1982, Medicare shifted from a cost-based reimbursement system for hospitals to a prospective payment system based on diagnosis related groups

Although the 1980s was a wonderful decade, there were some negative events. The 1980s contained many assassinations, such as John Lennon, Anwar Sadat, Marvin Gaye, Indira Gandhi, and Olof Palme

During the twentieth century, Canada as a nation witnessed and endured several historical events that have had a deep and profound influence on Canadian politics. The most influential and constant force in twentieth century Canadian politics has been the increasing power and command of Quebec nationalism and the influence it has had on Canadian politics today. Quebec nationalism has shaped the structure and dynamics of Canadian federalism from a centralized to a decentralized form of federal government (Beland and Lecours 2010, 423). The decentralization of several sectors within the Canadian government has been a direct effect of Quebec nationalism. Decentralization has led to more autonomy among the provincial governments, especially in

Canada as a country was founded on the constitutional premise of federalism, a governmental system in which the federal and provincial governments are equal and separate entities together in political coalition. Quebec joined Confederation in 1867 on the constitutional promise of equality. French-speaking Canadians were assured provincial control of their social programs, health, and education. The premise of shared sovereignty acknowledged the variation between distinct peoples in Canada and their particular political culture’s. On May 14th, 1980 former Liberal Prime Minister of Canada Pierre Elliott Trudeau delivered his final speech in his campaign against former Quebec Premier, Rene Levesque’s referendum on separation from Canada.

Canada has long been a nation of unparalleled development and evolution. Sir Wilfrid Laurier recognised that the late 19th century was to mark a period of great change in the newborn Canada. Under Sir Laurier’s leadership Canada made great strides towards economic prosperity and greater international recognition, prompting him to remark that “Canada will fill the twentieth century.” Though Sir Laurier never lived to see whether or not the young nation of Canada fulfilled his expectations, his prediction came true, though perhaps not in every dimension. Despite its strong agricultural and manufacturing sectors, Canada’s economy fizzled towards the end of the twentieth century. However, a juvenile Canada did make a name for itself throughout

The 1980s was a pivotal decade in US history. It encompassed many facets of life that one could not help but be a part of. This was seen in daily events from MTV videos to President Reagan’s speeches regarding the Cold War to sitcoms that were engrossing families of all ethnic backgrounds. Unlike the 60s and 70s, which was more rock and roll and drug centric, the 80s was a bit more questioning in its view of national and worldwide events as they related to one’s individual circumstances. The idealistic and ineffective term of President Jimmy Carter moved the country in a more conservative direction in the 1980’s.

The history of Canada spans over hundreds of years. There have been endless defining occasion’s in our country's history that have constructed, and shaped our country. Canada has shaped as a nation politically, economically and socially through many consequences we have faced and many moments we have celebrated. Events such as the women's suffrage, Terry Fox’s Marathon of Hope, and Stephen Harper apologizing to aboriginal people regarding what happened with the Residential School System have had a lasting impact on our country. Their significance to Canadian history is evident through the impact they have had on many of our citizens. They have played a leading role in carving our history to be the way it is today.

Overall the Constitution of 1982 is suitable to many people, but there are some changes that can be made to solve the Constitutional crisis. The first change that should be made is that the Meech Lake Accord should be a part of the constitution. The second change that should be made is that Quebec should receive more rights as a province. The third change that should be made is that Quebec should have had a say in the deal-making process of the Constitution. With all of these changes in effect, the Constitutional crisis will be solved. This is because Quebec will be a province that will be united with Canada, and the Meech Lake Accord will not ‘’die off’’, keeping their legacy, culture, and traditions alive. These three changes can bring peace

- The methods that people have been used in the workplace has been constantly changing over time. Change has mainly been driven by the increase in population, advancement in technology, and the amount of information being shared. Each age is a period in human history that has been vastly different from each another age. The current age can be called the change age, due to all the changes that are being made in the workplace.

The accord was designed to bring Quebec into the constitution while keeping the people who live there as comfortable as possible. They were “in fear of losing their identity within the English-speaking majority by giving it status as a distinct society.” Quebec never got their way.

The 80s had a very distinct personality to its pop culture phenomena. It was in the 80s that we saw the first mass explosion of hysteria for new toys, with the 1983 winter shortage of Cabbage Patch Dolls. One of the biggest pop culture crazes of its times, the individually named and crafted Cabbage Patch Dolls join the ranks of the dolls of each decade, reflecting the eternal power of the doll.

In the second chapter of the previous part I looked into the representation of the German occupiers in a corpus of books for young readers that were published during the 1970s. The aim of this chapter is to explore the portrayal of the Germans in young people’s fiction of the 1980s and to outline the main shifts in attitude towards them. As I shall attempt to show in this chapter, authors of the 1980s moved away from the oversimplified interpretations of the previous decade and introduced new and hitherto unexplored themes.
