Transcript: Canada 150 by: Katherine Pelayo The Constitution Act reinforced the Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms in Canada. It gave Canadians the independence from Britain. Constitution Act Constitution Act British North America Act The signing of the British North America Act was an event that happened because Canada wanted to claim themselves as their own country. Canada then became a new, self governing foundation, that included New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Quebec on July 1, 1867. British North America Act Canadian Flag In 1964, the Canadian Prime Minister Lester B Pearson made a proposal for the design of the national flag. He made a proposal for three designs including; a red ensign with the fleur-de-lis and the Union Jack, a design that had three maple leaves and lastly a red flag with one red flag on a white square. One day the design with the red leaf and white square was approved by Jacques St-Cyr. In the late 1964 the final design was approved by Queen Elizabeth II. The flag came in effect on February 15th 1965. Canadian Flag Quebec Sovereignty Was an act to bring independence to Quebec. Quebec wanted to be on their own rather then being apart of the Canadian nation. For years they were apart of Canada's history but they wanted to become their own country. Due to the discrimination acts and racism they suffered throughout the last couple years. Quebec Sovereignty The FLQ Crisis was a national liberation movement that was created to bring independence to Quebec. The members were so determined to achieve this goal that they went as far as kidnapping Canadian representatives, bombing attempts and using propaganda to reveal their message to everyone. FLQ Crisis FLQ Crisis The Bill 101 as known as Charte de la Langue Francaise was introduced by a woman named Camilla Laurin in 1977. It was created to claim French the official language in Quebec. Bill 101 Bill 101 The Official Language Act was a Canadian law that came into effect on September 9, 1969 which stated that English and French were equal and the official languages of Canada. Official Language Act Official Language Act The Last Spike was a celebration of the fact that the railway spike was driven through the Canadian Pacific Railway. The railway was at the time the main way of transportation. The final spike railway that was installed in Canada had meant that the railway was complete and went through all of Canada. The Last Spike The Last Spike Battle of Vimy Ridge The Battle of Vimy Ridge was an order from Canadian forces to take over Vimy Ridge, even though they knew it was guarded by Britain forces. Before Canadian soliders took a shot at taking it over, the French tried many times before. Even when the multiple attempts France was never successful, however Canada was. To Canadians today it is a symbolic piece of land that expresses what the victory meant for each soldier. Battle of Vimy Ridge On April 1, 1999 Canada's national map was about to be changed. The Northwest Territories was divided into two, and ended up creating a new territory known as Nunavut. In the Inuit language the word Nunavut means "our land." Creation of Nunavut Creation of Nunavut The National Evergy Program (NEP) was an energy policy created by the Canadian government. Not long after it was founded it created a war between the west and the east, where they fought for theh energy resources revenues. Due to nationalism the NEP guaranteed the supply and price of Canadian oil and gas. National Energy Program National Energy Program Was a five month period filled with violence. The rebels were mainly apart of the Metis nation, that opposed the Canadian government. These people caused acts of violence because they did not like the changes happening in Canada, considering many of their people were being affected by it. North West Rebellion North West Rebellion Nisga'a Treaty The Nisga'a Treaty was a negotiated agreement between the Nisga nation, the Government of British Columbia and the Government of Canada. It was effective on May 11, 2000. It was the fourteenth treaty that was negotiated in Canada since 1976. Nisga'a Treaty The Treaty of Paris put an end to the seven year war between France and Great Britain. However the war put a major depression throughout France. Their military was compromised in Europe, their navy became weak and their economy crashed. Much of their colonial empire was passed to Great Britain. Treaty of Paris Treaty of Paris

Transcript: Canada 150 What can we celebrate? The smallest region may be the St. Lawrence lowlands but it is the most populated, with Toronto (the largest city in Canada) in this region. More than 4 million people live in the Toronto area. Toronto is a diverse urban center. Large cities that exist and grow because they fulfill several functions (manufacturing, transportation, services, cultural centers and industry) Land use in urban areas are usually residential, commercial, transportation, institutional and industrial. Canada marked its 150 years last year on July 1. Though it is something to celebrate, there was some controversy about the 150 part of the celebration. The indigenous people believed it should be Canada 1500 because of the FNMI peoples history. Though the government claimed that they were celebrating 150 years of confederation it still didn't ease their thoughts and arguments. But Canada has many things we should celebrate; our environment, population, natural resources and our communities. Managing Natural Resources (Canada, 2018) Demographics Sidewalk Labs to create future city (Gibson, 2018) In rural communities or the Interior plains (which covers a lot of Canada's midsection, mostly covered in grasslands) there are huge grain farms, known as Canada's breadbasket region where 30 million metric tons of wheat is harvested annually and some farms are used for horse and cattle ranching. More than half of Canada is covered by the Canadian shield and many of Canada's largest forests, thousands of lakes and waterfalls are located here making great picnic areas, trailing spots and scenic views. The Appalachian highlands border the Atlantic ocean and many small inlands and bays which provide great harbors for fishing vessels We rely too much on the burning of fossil fuels (coal) as our source of energy. Excessive amounts of greenhouse gases are released into the air with this process. If we start to make long term plans and goals for Canada, it will help our economy and will help us transition to a more greener way of living. (How Can Canada Become More Eco-Friendly Using Renewable Energy Sources?, 2015) (Gadacz, n.d.) We can celebrate Canada's demographics (literacy rate, natural increase) and our diverse society. Being a home to many multicultural families and communities. Our beautiful environment (large forests, lakes and waterfalls and our different regions) that provides a home to our wildlife. We should celebrate where our country stands in the world because of our diverse economy and our large supply of natural resources to the world. All the food we harvest in our country providing people in rural areas with jobs. Our urban cities are extremely advanced and diverse with lots of functions which supply us with the services we need. 2036 Canada Exporting Natural Resources One of google's companies is planning to build something along the east side of the waterfront in Toronto. This project (Sidewalk Toronto) will use cutting-edge technology to model for future urban developments. (Gibson, 2018) (City of Toronto, 2017) Britannica, T. E. (2016). Canadian Shield.
