    Position Paper Intro Assignment Greyson Armstrong Although it has morphed and changed over the years, the debate between federalists and sovereignists remains a heated topic with many perspectives and sides weighing in on the issue. This source is a quote from the Prime Minister of Canada, Pierre Trudeau, in the year 1967 about the issue of whether or not the province of Quebec should be considered a nation within the nation state of Canada. Trudeau takes an anti-Quebec nationalist approach onto the issue with his statement that declaring Quebec to be its own nation would be a “hoax” to the citizens of Quebec and Canada, and that if it was declared its own nation that it would bring about the destruction of Canada as a country. His federalistic approach holds prospects of a type of Canadian nationalism that sees Quebec not as a small player in Canada but as a major one,…

    Pierre Trudeau 's attempts to create a sort of "National Identity" during his first term, from 1968 to 1972, has resulted in much debate and controversy. Each of these works looks at Pierre Trudeau from a different historiographical viewpoint. The reason for this is because Trudeau, and his "nationalist" policies, affected every aspect of Canadian citizens’ lives. This was due to the fact that Trudeau was essentially trying, in creating these policies, to answer the question that the Canadian intellectuals were struggling since World War II 's conclusion. This question was: "If [Canadians] are not British [due to the rapid decline of the British Empire] and not American [due to Canadians ' long held distrust of American power and influence]…

    In the ad, Real Change by the Liberal party, it begins with patriotic colors of red and white with momentous music and asks, “what does real leadership mean?” and answers itself on how Justin Trudeau can lead change. Throughout the ad it supports itself by presenting guest speakers from different cultural backgrounds, jobs, males and females speaking Canada’s official languages: French and English. They state the economy is going downhill with the current government, Stephan Harper and Tom Mulcair (NDP), who provides “no real ideas”. Therefore, with the special guests, Justin Trudeau uses to support himself to send an overall message that he can lead change for all Canadians by reducing taxes for the middle class and taxing more of the rich, for a stronger middle class. Since the recent phenomenon of political ads, political parties such as the Liberal party try and cater to prospective and loyal voters by attempting to create a connection with Canadians by featuring Canadian political culture and democracy with consideration of the aimed audience in…

    For many centuries, laws and rights have been society’s foundation for nations all around the world. Laws are rules that people are made to follow by the government; a right is something a person has that should not be taken away from them. Both play an important role in determining the order of society in a nation and over time, each country developed their own constitution. As early as the Magna Carta and as recent as the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union, countries began developing written documents, in order to record and address the rights of individuals in their country. For Canada, this step was taken 34 years ago, with the introduction of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms in 1982.…
