After almost a decade of conservative rule, it’s all change in Canada, where red replaced blue as the predominant political colour in 2015. On October 19th 2015, Justin Trudeau led the liberal party into victory in the country’s election and became Canada’s 23rd prime minister. In the following pages, we will analyse, by using two main arguments, how Justin Trudeau won his campaign by beating out his opponents in the historic elections of 2015. The first reason why Trudeau is now the new Prime Minister

Firstly, Pierre Elliott Trudeau was a significant prime minister in the view of the fact that he strengthened the Canadian nation by improving the role of Québec in Canada. Trudeau demonstrated this fact when he promulgated the Official Languages Act in 1969, which guaranteed official bilingualism in Canadian service where English government workers had to learn to speak and understand French. By imposing this act, he wished to preserve and improve the role that the French language had in Canada

From watching his dad become Prime Minister to becoming one himself, here are the impacts Justin Trudeau has made in this year. By now, everyone has heard about Trudeau’s remarks, on how he wants to work with every culture or race living in Canada to come together and become more of an economic economy. Trudeau had vowed to help improve the lives of the Aboriginal Canadians. Justin Trudeau and the Liberals have been working extremely hard to correct the past injustices served to the Aboriginal people

2015 was an exciting year for Canada. Andrew Wiggins was named the 2015 NBA Rookie of the Year, oil prices plunged and Alberta elected an NDP government, the country hosted the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup, and for the first time in Canadian history, a father and his son have both been elected as Prime Minister. My paper will touch on the results of the 2015 Federal Election and how it compared to the 2011 Federal Election. It will focus mainly on how the Liberal party was able to encourage more youth

is important in determining class status because cultural capital gives us power. Cultural capital helps us become successful, achieve goals and rise up the social ladder. Without necessarily having financial capital or wealth. French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu saw social class groups as identifiable according to their levels of “cultural and economic capital.” Increasingly, individuals distinguish themselves not according to economic or occupational factors but on the basis of cultural tastes and

Cultural capital is the concept that middle and upper class parents pass on behaviors and habits to their children that promote acquisition of wealth and education. When I examine my life, I realize that I may have benefited from cultural capital. I grew up in a rural farming town with a population of 1,500. The town was isolated, 40 miles from another city. Most families in this town were of lower social economic status, and depended on farming as a livelihood. My father worked as a Mechanical Engineer

In June 24, 1968, the leader of RIN Pierre Bourgault, had called for public protests against Pierre Trudeau. The RIN was involved in a riot which took place in Montreal streets and park that forced the suspension of the negotiations. Shortly, when the negotiation was resumed in the August of 1968, the RIN held their early position of making Quebec a unilingual and thus the RIN withdrew from the negotiation. Meanwhile, the MSA and RN was integrated, Rene Levesque was chosen as acting president of

Bourdieu Pierre Bourdieu’s theories of social power centered around the stratification of the class structure. He explained that a person’s habitus (mental filter) is shaped by the practices and behaviours that surround them. He is clear to state that one’s habitus is not created individually, but is acquired through the internalization of the interactions around them. This habitus in turn shapes how a person sees the world and how they present themselves in it (Appelrouth & Edles, 2016, p. 448)

Terror arose in Quebec, 1970, when the kidnapping of James Cross by the Front de libération du Québec caused the October Crisis. It further strained the relationship between Quebec and the rest of Canada. The majority of those outside of Quebec disregarded the crisis despite the panic that arose in Quebec.
