1. Marie Curie: Not only did Marie Curie have a relentless drive to fuel her research on chemistry and physics despite an initial lack of funding, but she practiced admirable humility by famously refusing awards recognizing her many talents. Curie, a pioneer in the study of radiation and its chemistry, continues to maintain a strong legacy today in the form of two elements, Curium and Polonium, and two world-class medical research facilities in Warsaw and Paris – which, mind you, went on two produce

result of something happening within the atom itself, a property she called radioactivity” (Goldsmith). She discovered that the rays were emitted from the anatomical structure of the atom and the outcome was not due to the interaction of molecules. Pierre Currie later abandoned his own research in crystals to help his wife in testing minerals that revealed high levels of radioactivity. From Marie Curie’s testing she concluded that a new more powerful element was responsible for the high levels of radioactivity

The sole qualification for writing a love letter is that you feel the love and want to express it. That’s the beauty of it. But it would be trite and probably false to say that as an expat, I can love Canada more truly (observe: Gord Downie). I think it interesting, however, that my love for Canada has grown up – become richer, more intentional and more constant – since I left. I moved with my family from Toronto to New York in 2014 to take a job teaching philosophy – a fantasy job, a world-class

In recent months, there has been a controversy over Sophie Gregoire Trudeau(SGT)’s comment. According to SUN+, she said “I have three children and a husband who is prime minister. I need help. I need a team to help me serve the people” (Alan, F. 2016). After telling such a comment to Canadian government, SGT is being criticized by some people and politicians because she does not have a official work as a Justin Trudeau(JT)’s wife as well as the role of first lady has no formal status in Canada. That

Jean Chretien was Canada’s 20th prime minister, serving from November 4, 1993, to December 12, 2003. Chretien was born in Shawinigan, Quebec, on January 11, 1934 as the eighteenth of nineteen children. Only ten of his siblings lived past infancy. In total he served three terms in office as the leader of the Liberal Party but was already active in politics as young as the age of twelve. He attended Liberal rallies and worked for the party under his father, Wellie Chretien, who was a Liberal Party

Justin Trudeau was elected Canadian Prime Minister in 2015. In his acceptance speech he declared “We know in our bones that Canada was built by people from all corners of the world who worship every faith, who belong to every culture, and who speak every language”. Canada’s vast geography lead to a diverse populus, who have created one of the most powerful and influential countries in the world. This paper will profile Canada and situate it in North America using it’s history, physical geography

Pierre Elliott Trudeau rings a bell in most Canadians minds. The confident and charismatic Prime Minister was one of Canada’s most long standing Prime Ministers and helped establish Canada’s sovereignty. Trudeau was born on October 18th, 1919 and lived a privileged life at home and was elected into office. He was elected as Canada’s fifteenth Prime Minister and as the head of the Liberal party from 1968-1971 and was elected again from 1980-1984 (biographi.ca). Trudeau made great strides for Canada

John Cage is a controversial composer. Some may say he revolutionized music composition and changed music history of the 20th century, yet others do not even acknowledge his compositional contributions as music. I believe John Cage was a brilliant artist, and his works push the boundaries of both sound and music to create a genre of his own by using the elements of silence and chance. Through his compositional development, one can track his changing music philosophy as it grew from a limited notion

The concept of the rights revolution in Canada is one that is thoroughly explored by Michael Ignatieff in The Rights Revolution, 2007. To Michael Ignatieff the rights revolution (the creation of laws surrounding the rights of a diverse Canada) achieved what it set out to accomplish – equal rights for all Canadians, no matter their ethnicity, gender, social status, sexual orientation, or age (Ignatieff, 2007). For modern day Canadian families it is important to recognize that this is not the case
