History of Canada

Throughout nursing history in Canada, nursing was considered a woman’s job. This view changed after the Second World War when men were encouraged to enter the nursing profession. While the views of men in nursing have shifted over time, it is still a female dominated career. (Canadian Muslim of History, 2018). Only six percent of registered nurses in Canada are male (Canadian Institute for Health Information, 2011). With such a large female-male ratio there are many gender inequalities in the Nursing

The 1990s were important in Canadian history due to Canada’s military involvement in Rwanda, the Persian Gulf War and the Oka Crisis. Canada’s role in Rwanda started in 1993, when the United Nations sent 2,500 peacekeepers that included 400 Canadians to Rwanda (Colyer,Cecillon,Draper,& Hogeveen,2010,pg 104). This was in an effort to stop the conflict over power between the Hutu and Tutsi people (Colyer,Cecillon,Draper,& Hogeveen,2010,pg 104). In an incident in 1994, the Tutsis were blamed by the

Black History Month When you think of the history of black people, it’s often marred and overshadowed by slavery. It would seem as if four centuries of captivity had become the definitive status quo of a history of peoples that have existed for millennia. As an immigrant from Africa myself, I often find myself asking ‘Why is this chapter of our heritage the only story the world seems to know about us?’ As one of the most distributed race in the world, this limited lack of knowledge and misrepresentation

In 1783, Canada diversified and split into Upper and Lower Canada, causing Britain to create timber preferences in 1803. The creation of timber preferences led to differing farmer-lumberman economies in St. John and the Ottawa river valleys (Fowke,1942, 82). Such formations shows exactly how different needs lead to different economies for different parts of Canada starting at very early stages of development. Recognizing these differing agricultural and lumber economies is important to the timeline

influence of nationalism that once gripped millions of Canadians seemed to be loosened. Nationalizing myths like the anthem failed to attract her towards the country. Canadian history is, in Dylan’s eyes, rife with holes, and the narrative of a “great, noble Canada” is lost to her as propaganda masking the darker moments in Canadian history. Her own personal experiences exposed her to the nation’s attitude of indifference towards the French language and culture. This stems from a lack of understanding of

their families. Through the shooter’s action and hatred on feminism, it also reveals a bigger story of violence against women (Villeneuve). This shows that students can skillfully analyze the event by seeing its historical significance to Canadian history. In addition, Polytechnique reveals insightful aftereffects of the main characters. Subsequent to the massacre, Valérie constantly had nightmares, and she resourced herself with smoking. She wrote a mock letter to the shooter’s parents, explaining

French settled into Canada 400 years ago independently of the British, the first stages of French/Francophone identity was formed. Over time this unique identity began to emerge and become something different from the rest of Canada. Language, history, and the geography of their land continues to evolve and separate the Francophones from Canada as their land and way of life is special to our nation. The dual nature of the French/English faultline in Canada manifested early on in history when New France

within Canada during the 1860s. This was when three British colonies became the four provinces that would join under one government called the Dominion of Canada which was formed on July 1st, 1867. The provinces in the Dominion consisted of Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia.
