firmness of truth, Mohandas Gandhi worked and
lived by this word. By peaceful, non-violent

Victoria, Mohandas Gandhi was born to Kaba Gandhi
and his wife. Although his father, Kaba, was the

Henri Bourassa (Canadian Politician) For the
duration of Henri Bourassa's political career, he
was viewed botany as a great educator and a stable
critic. Although Bourassa was not an intelligent
man, he succeeded in making a variety of ideas a
reason for debate for nearly thirty years, which
would raise the opportunity for him become a well
known political leader. Subsequently, Bourassa's
views and opinions were sometimes deemed as
unethical and negative. Many Canadians viewed him
as a proud Can...

KENYATTA... Taa ya Kenya or Swahili for the Light
of Kenya was the man who brought the light of
independence to Kenya. Indeed, he was a beacon, a
rallying point for suffering Kenyans to fight for
their rights, justice and freedom. His brilliance
gave strength and aspiration to people beyond the
boundaries of Kenya, indeed beyond the shores of
Africa. Just as one light shines in total darkness
and provides a raising point, so did Ken-yalta

Singapore. Even saying the word and some of the
uninformed may still hold the belief that it is
located somewhere in China, knowing only where it
is approximately. Yet this vibrant, newly
industrialized city-state is in fact located close
to the equator and is often overlooked on the
world map; not surprising, considering it is only
represented by a small dot in the South China Sea.
Today, the island of Singapore has earned high
acclaim for its rapid transformation from a humble
trading post to ...

Quebec's Quiet revolution: What is it? How has it
changed Quebec's society? How has it affected
Confederation? The English-French relations have
not always been easy. Each is always arguing and
accusing the other of wrong doings. All this
hatred and differences started in the past, and
this Quiet revolution, right after a new Liberal
government led by Jean Lesage came in 1960. Thus
was the beginning of the Quiet Revolution. Lesage

Rest Of Canada Canadian Citizens

The Canadian unity crisis involving Quebec has
been a controversial issue since before the
country^s confederation. Surrounding the seemingly
unsurpassable dilemma of unity there are three
main obstacles. The significant lack of action for
Canada on the part of many francophone Quebecois,
prevents any profound attachment to the country on
their behalf. A mood of intransigence on the part
of Canadians outside Quebec serves to alienate and
anger the individuals within the province. A
perceived lea...

lost trade sovereignty. (Kennett 1996) Neither the
