M.L Bush said that ‘It was interconnected regional rebellions rather than one fluid movement’ because once the rebels had gone back to where they lived dotted across the North of England they would all have to meet up rather than go down to London in one group. Also the rebels outnumbered the King’s army 4:1 when they were confronted at the River Don. Instead of accepting the King’s pardon they should have risked battle once they dispersed they were no longer a threat to Henry. They were the stronger force but they tried to negotiate before they had achieved anything. This is another point towards poor leadership because there was no clear plan in how they were going to get their terms accepted only what terms they wanted.
They try to make it so that kids, adults and families are able to carry on with their lives as if there isn’t anything going on. Many Canadians have died trying to keep everything and everyone in its place, and not out of control. I support this, and grew much respect towards the Canadian peacekeepers just for the
Despite their overall small numbers and their ambivalent relationship with the Canadian government, Canada’s First Nations people contributed significantly to the Great War. Exact numbers are not available for many reasons. The Department of Indian Affairs at the time did not track “Indian Enlistments” as closely as they should have and many men who enlisted were overlooked. As well, because the government department focussed on “status Indians,” many Natives who enlisted from the Metis people, Inuit and other groups, were not counted. As well, the government did not track Natives from Newfoundland and Labrador because they were not part of Canada at the time.
The English-Canadians sought after full conscription like Britain and the United States, while the French-Canadians still did not want any form of conscription. The countries unity was slowly crumbling but still Mackenzie King did not institute conscription. He felt there had to be other ways to solve the emerging problems then conscription. (Cruxton and Wilson, 263). In 1917, Borden felt the lack of troops was so awful that there was no choice but conscription.
However, many other factors played a role in the demise of the Parliament such as the fact that they were ill-organised, the lack of popular support and their inability to enforce decisions. Frederick William IV was partially responsible for the failure of the Frankfurt Parliament as he was unwilling to accept the ‘crown from the gutter’. William IV was aware that acceptance of the leadership may lead to war with Austria. Austria had no wish to see a united Germany and wanted to keep it weak and divided in order to dominate. Frederick William shared this view and was unwilling to potentially cause a war with such a powerful state.
Progressives, like Wilson, sought to protect the interests of the people and they feared that war would destroy everything that they had accomplished over the years to improve the American quality of life. . The War was seen as imperialistic and imperialism led to corruption. In addition to the fear of Europe’s’ encroaching imperialism, the progressives were afraid of what would happen to the reforms and the movement were the U.S. to declare war (Wilson, 13). War destroyed the family and the family was the center of society and government in the progressive
Durham dealt with the captured rebels sparingly and even pardoned most of them. Durham suggested that the Canada’s be united, and that they be given a responsible government. He also proposed that all of the British North America be united. Durham’s report was not welcomed in the Lower Canada. The French did not want to be assimilated by the English.
My first explanation is about how Cherokees were helpful and on the side of the U.S. during some of the wars, but was never against them at all. During one of the war battles, Cherokees were helpful and supportive to the British. So why do they need to move when they are trying to help us? Another war that occurred in 1812, the Cherokees fought along side with the U.S. The Cherokees were important to the U.S. war because some of them were commissioned as officers.
The reason why is because during the On-to-Ottawa trek workers were unhappy with their critical conditions and when the workers leaders made it to the PM in Ottawa they got accused of being terrorists and communists. The second reason is that the terrorist group known as the FLQ used terrorism to try to attempt separatism during the October Crisis .The government imposed the war measures act which affected the citizens of Quebec. It is believed that other measures could have been used to resolve this problem. Finally the Parti Quebecois’s decision to pass bill 101 was unjustified to the English speaking Canadians. It showed that Quebec wants to have no relations with the rest of
We could not have Kept History without Canadian Talent Throughout the years, Canada has overcome many fears, faults, victories, battles, hardships and countries. Not only did the world come to know Canada as the great peacemaker, but also through Canadian broadcasting. The CBC and NFB helped preserve the identity of French-Canadians not only in broadcasting works but also in forming the way the culture itself is preserved. French-Canadians play a big part as well. It all started in 1929, the Royal Commission on Broadcasting (the Aird Commission) was known to ensure that Canada's cultural identity is reflected in the radio programming available to Canadians.
