Description

Canada: A Very Short IntroductionCanada is not one nation, but three: English Canada, Quebec, and First Nations. Yet as a country Canada is very successful, in part because it maintains national diversity through bilingualism, multiculturalism, and federalism. Alongside this contemporary openness Canada also has its own history to contend with; with a legacy of broken treaties and residential schools for its Indigenous peoples, making reconciliation between Canada and First Nations

Canada is not one nation, but three: English Canada, Quebec, and First Nations. Yet as a country Canada is very successful, in part because it maintains national diversity through bilingualism, multiculturalism, and federalism. Alongside this contemporary openness Canada also has its own history to contend with; with a legacy of broken treaties and residential schools for its Indigenous peoples, making reconciliation between Canada and First Nations an ongoing journey, not a destination.

Drawing on history, politics, and literature, this Very Short Introduction starts at the end of the last ice age, when the melting of the ice sheets opened the northern half of North America to Indigenous peoples, and covers up to today's anthropogenic climate change, and Canada's climate politics. Donald Wright emphasizes Canada's complexity and diversity as well as its different identities and its commitment to rights, and explores its historical relationship to Great Britain, and its ongoing relationship with the United States. Finally, he examines Canada's northern realities and its northern identities.

My go-to face wash
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Style: Facial Cleanser
I've used a number of face scrubs/cleansers over the years but have had issues with breaking out. This Marlowe cleanser smells great, lathers well, and most importantly, doesn't cause me to break out. I've been using this consistently for over a year and will continue to do so. Great product.

Best men's skin care line i have tried
Jack Black is some of the best men's care products on the market. If you have sensitive skin, especially shaving thinking of products is perfect as I have been using it for years and it is without a doubt the best product I have used so far. I don't have ingrown hairs or razor burn anymore The face wash leaves me feeling clean and fresh and I love how the lotion is smooth, non greasy and has the spa factor built in. Also always shows up on lists for best men's skin care multiple times.
