When it comes to who was a more effective politician than the other, leadership abilities and their historical significance were the most common answers. Across Canada, many politicians ran several parties such as the Conservative Party and the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation. Two great examples of politicians who ran parties are R.B Bennett and Tommy Douglas. R.B Bennett leading the Conservative party from 1927-1938 and Tommy Douglas running the Co-operative Commonwealth Federation from 1933-1961. Both were fortunate with Bennett being Prime Minister from 1930-1935 and Douglas being the premier of Saskatchewan from 1944-1961.

In my opinion, Mr. Smith and Rodney Davis share many similarities but also several differences. Rodney Davis represents the 13th Congressional District of Illinois in the U.S. House of Representatives. Every time I've seen Rodney Davis in person he has been kind and likable.

Change make us feel alive because it is the essence of every living thing. Chris MacCandless and Timothy Treadwell desperately needed a change in their lives in order to escape from their past unpleasant experiences and problems and they found their solution in the wilderness. Leaving the human word of comfortable excesses and surrendering their fates to nature empowered them to gain back a feeling of control over their lives. When your life is under a constant threat and you push yourself to your limits trying to survive in the wild, you start looking at many things differently than in normal circumstances. Wilderness can be a perfect place to find a peace in your mind and help you find your answers, but it is also a dangerous place that you
In the majority of stories we read, authors use literary elements such as setting, plot, or point of view, to try and illustrate their ideas and views, such as political views. In our short story unit, we have read many stories whose authors each define culture using different literary elements like the aforementioned ones. In “Saint Chola”, K. Kvashay-Boyle uses literary elements such as symbols, character, setting, and language, to develop cultural ideas about not only one culture, but three different cultures. She develops ideas about Muslims, Americans, and the sub-culture of junior high students in America. While developing ideas about these three cultures, Boyle also

There’s been a lot of escapade going on these past three years with Tom Robinson’s case and Bob Ewell. You have learned to deal with others criticizing you because of me, but you’ve also learned to look at the world in someone else’s shoes. You’ve experienced injustice and prejudice from the case of Tom Robinson. You both have matured greatly, although this wasn’t the way I hoped you would. Being surrounded by people who make fun of you because I’m defending a negro was hard to adjust to, but you both learned to keep your fumes out and be a lady and gentleman. Unfortunately, not everyone is a true lady or gentleman.
Writers have many reasons behind writing their books. The writers’ methods depends on their past encounters and history related to the topics that they are discussing.
