So the question I want to ask is can private broadcasters afford to change? If private broadcasters are continually forced to compete with other broadcasters- such as the situation with CBC and the free digital streaming music service- how can they afford to change? How can they afford to compete with a government funded broadcaster? They need viewers so they play what will get them ratings.

One of the main reasons for Ottawa's decision to acquire the Prairie Provinces was to create "a region of frontier settlement capable of rapid development and capable in turn of stimulating developments in other parts of the dominion” (MacPherson 6). The American influx originated from the country's Midwest and Great Plains states like Montana, Colorado, Nebraska, and the Dakotas, where unsettled farming land, formerly plentiful, was becoming very rare. The settlers rapidly increased wheat production in the west, and helped grow the Canadian economy through investments based off natural resource wealth. They were arguably even more influential, however, in their political ideology (MacPherson 7). Immigrants brought with them the classic liberal American ideas such as individualism, devotion to the free market and an aversion to large, centralized powers (“Imprint” 1).
They were growing in the same area, but they are significant differences in many aspects in economy. Despite the common though that Canada and Mexico have similar industry to sustain economic, these two countries still have different development in industry.

They felt betrayed. Even though the British didn’t fulfill their promises, the Loyalists were successful in starting a new life. The British/Loyalists have changed Canada by bringing many things.

He was shy but let the Canadians get what they wanted. Some may argue he gave up too much power for the citizens but that is what I like in a Prime minister. Pearson had many accomplishments that concealed the minor scandals he was involved in and turned out to be one of the most unforgettable prime ministers of Canada. In conclusion, Lester B. Pearson was an exceptional prime minister. He had many accomplishments such as creating the new flag of Canada, and the Canada Pension plan for old- age seniors just to name a few.
This allowed young people to see a world not as readily available before and in today’s contemporary society with new music genre’s increasing; there has also been an increasing demand for music videos to accompany it. In this essay I will be analysing music videos in one of music’s two most popular genres – Hip Hop and Rock. These two genres differ and this translates not only musically but visually. I am to investigate whether these two genres fit the stereotypical criteria of the media, or whether they have been portrayed in the wrong way -hypothesis the stereotypical view (elaborate) -i have used both primary and secondary research in order to carry out this investigation -focus group (use quotes) - Hip hop music videos have always been a controversial topic amongst audiences as it is a genre that is known to exaggerate and encourage a patriarchal way of living which many female audiences would be opposed to. This mainly consists of wealth, power and beautiful women which are the goals of most youth in today’s contemporary society – in other words: The American dream.
The CBC supplies a variety of different shows to meet these many unique needs. Many of the people who make up the Canadian population have roots from other countries, as this country is multi-cultural. The audiences generated by imported shows such as ‘Mr. Bean’ and ’Coronation Street’, which originate from England, reflect this.

Neil Young was famous as a Canadian rock star, but in recent months there have been many controversies around his tour was that meant to rise money for the Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation, and help them protect their living conditions and the human rights. However, I have a question: Should artists just stick to their art? Different people have different opinions about this question and Neil Young’s activity. On the one hand, the protestors think that Neil Young is a rock star and his job is singer. He should pay his attention to creating more songs, rather than getting involved to in the political issue.

All of these have somehow been affected or have been caused by immigration. We meaning Canada have over time progressed in becoming a multicultural society.

The Canadian governments website boast, “Canadian businesses are ‘getting connected’ more than ever before, exploiting advances in communications technology to reach out into the global marketplace in search of buyers for their products. Though we have always been a nation looking outward for markets, Canadian trade continues to grow beyond our borders” (The Government of Canada, economy overview). According to Robert Pastor, the head professor of international relations at Emory University, trade between the United States and Canada has historically been high. Writing about the North American Free Trade Agreement’s (NAFTA) impact international trade in Canada, Pastor writes, “Although two-way trade between Canada and the United States had always been high, it had stagnated for the decade before the Free Trade Agreement; then it doubled” (Pastor 70). After signing NAFTA, Canada experienced a major boom in the economy.
