Canadian Natives

Hello, (Miss Pollock),

I agree that canada is indeed a very cold country. I did some research on the Canadian natives and How and why they lived through the cold weather of Canada. Canadian Natives used anything possible to keep warm including animal fur for clothing. as you can imagine the technology of their time wasn't as great as today and this is going to explain why they lived through it.

They found land but today Canada isn't as valuable as it was when first found. Canada was a great prize and they wanted to live with a responsibility and creating a big tribe on this land. They did so until Europe moved in.

That is what I researched.

Willie O'ree (First African Canadian to Play Hockey)

Hello,
My teacher asked us to right a blog on any african canadian that we think made an impact to the country. I have a major interest in hockey and so i decided to right about the first black man to play hockey. Born October 1935 , Fredricton New Brunswick Willie o"ree had a passion for hockey when he was young.

O'Ree was called up to the Boston Bruins of the NHL to replace an injured player. O'Ree was 95% blind in his right eye due to being hit there by an errant puck two years earlier. That makes him a special player. Normally that would have had him quit the game but O'ree didn't. However he decided to keep it a secret and made his debut in 1958 . Willie O'Ree noted that "racist remarks were much worse in the U.S. cities than in Toronto and Montreal," the two Canadian cities hosting NHL teams at the time, and that "Fans would yell, 'Go back to the South' and 'How come you're not picking cotton?' Things like that. It didn't bother me. I just wanted to be a hockey player, and if they couldn't accept that fact, that was their problem, not mine.

Goodbye and thanks for readin my report on willie O'ree , a very special man.

Assignment #3 - 2109

Hello,For me i would say it's hard to really predict what will happen to Canada in 2109 because Canada has not had any major changes in the past decade ecnomically & goverment wise. The biggest thing I think is happening with Canada is where they're locating their troops and how that will affect the future. How long do you think Canada will stay in afghanistan?But overall my biggest concern is the Natives in Canada. Will they get the rights they deserve. This is a Native Canadaians prespective.
