Question of the Week

With the upcoming election, will people actually go out and vote? Voter turnout has been declining. Why is this? What can be done? I really hope that Canadian youth will really go out to the polls and vote, I think it's super important

Question of the Week

It's really interesting to see how Ghadafi feels that the war is unjust looking at everything that has happened. It makes me wonder how people justify their actions and how people filter things in order to make decisions that are seen as being so terrible and stupid by others around them. This goes not only for Ghadafi but also our own governmental figures.

Question of the Week

How will the nuclear plant and radiation issues in Japan affect and influence choices regarding nuclear in other countries in the next coming while?

I like the idea of nuclear, it's a great concept, but I think that it has a LONG way to go before we should be constructing nuclear energy plants. Look at Chernobyl, look at Three Mile Island, or even the failure of Yucca Mountain. I think that nuclear has a long way before it can be considered safe enough to be in regular everyday use.

Question of the Week

During the mock question period in class, some questions arose in my mind that I hadn't really given too much thought. How can people in power, such as Stephen Harper, make such bad decisions when there seems to be a perfectly logical one right though or if it's not what Canadians want? What goes on behind closed doors that actually influences people to make these decisions?

Question of the Week:

I've been reading a lot of different things on climate change lately between my ESST class and both of my political science classes.

What is it going to take for the international community to see eye to eye on climate change and collectively take action?

Question of the Week

I know I'm posting these all in a clump but I just have been putting it off. Reading others peoples blogs gave me a better idea of what this really was supposed to be so I feel more comfortable with it now I guess.


Why are such important aspects of life, such as food and nutrition handed over to industries? Food has been so industrialized now, especially meat, it's a sad thing. People have become extremely dis-attached from where their food comes from. I feel like food should be handled personally and should be done better, ensuring healthier, more wholesome food. You shouldn't be eating it if the people making or preparing it had to wear surgical masks in the process.

Question of the Week

Why are the Canada Games not being televised on a more public national scale? Halifax spent tons of money building that new sports facility and thousands of Canadian athletes are there using it and showing off their talents.

Question of the Week

Who decides who is capable of taking care of children ?


I ask this in reference to the article I found on the grandmother who starved her grandson to death by accident. How did she raise her own children if her intellectual level isn't great? Was this taken into consideration when she was given her grandchildren?
