assignment# 7 Canadian Personalities

hey readers,

This assignment Is about Canadian Personalities.



4 a)Which category of Canadian Personalities interested you the most? Did you like the "we inspired", "we founded", "we fought", "we built" or "we governed" section the best? Why?

The category of Canadian Personalities interested me the most was We Built because it kinda means like i have done all that i can have done to get where i am now or where i want to be.Its like im strong i built all that i have by my self.


b)Which personality interested you the most? Why? Find an image of him or her to embed (add to the body of your post) and write, in your own words, a short description of what he or she did and why he or she is your favourite. If you get information from any source, you must credit it by creating a link to it (that includes information from the site that I've asked you to look at)




The person that i was most interested in was Nellie McClung She interested me because she was a Feminist and She fought with words.She was raised by a Christian and was born in Chatsworth Ontairo in the year of 1873.

Then she became a teacher at the age of 16.Maybe a year or a little bit less then a year she meet a activist named Annie McClung,that was soon going to be her her future mother-in-law.With Annie’s suporot, she wrote a the bestselling novel, but then used the fame to win friends.My favourite thing that she did was that she did was she gave a voice or vote to all Canadian women ,and in 1929 she became one of the Famous Five who demanded that woman he the legally rights to be there on person.


c.) In your post, suggest three more influential Canadian personalities that could be added to this site. Why did you choose these people? Which categories would they fit into? Link to information about each of them.


One of the people that i have chossen to write about was Juan de Onate. He was a Famous Spanish Explorer and He also wrote a Short Biography about the life of being Juan de Onate Spanish Conquistador and Explorer.He was most famous for Establishing the colony of New Mexico for Spain.While growing up with his father Don Cristobal de Onate she had a dream for her cheer to be a Spanish Conquistador and he did just that.He had a pretty long life from 1550 - 1630.The categorie that i would put him under would be We Built because He made his own dreams come true and he went almost thourgh his hole life by him self sence his mother died and him and his dad weren't that close.


If you want to learn more about him go to:



The second person that i choice was Sir Walter Raleigh.He was a Explorer, Privateer, Poet and Courtier.His Nationality was English and he was from Canada, his father was a farmer,his half brother was a explorer Sir Humphrey Gilbert, and he was also related to Sir Richard Grenville and Sir Francis Drake. He knew that he always wanted to be a Poet, Courtier, Privateer and Explorer and he did so. Now he is famous for "The Discovery of Guiana and establishing the Virginia colony of Roanoke Island in 1584". The cateporie i would put him under We Inspired because he was a poet and that is still kinda like writting so he insired alot of people with the words that he spoke and said to others.


The third person i chose is Celine Dion.I picked her because she was a singer/song writter and insired alot of poeple with what she sang and did.She Inspired me because all the things that she did to help people that wern't as fortunate as her.She was a great role motol to her kids and to everyone around her.The Cateporie that i would put her under would be We Inspired because she did inspire alot of people in many ways.

Here is some the songs that she sang that have good words in them that are inspiring:





7. Go back to your post and answer the following question:
d.) Which History-Maker did you have the most in common with? Were you able to figure it out from the clues given? What do you share with that person? What are some things that are different between you and that person?


The person that i had most in common with was Joseph-Armand Bombardier.I was not able to figure out that i would be in common with him because i have like nothing in common with him,only like maybe one thing and that is that we both had a sister and thats not really the same because he has two younger ones and i have one thats the same age,he also has five younger brothers and i dont have one.After i have finished the test i learned that Joseph-Armand Bombardier was a creative genius who built his first snowmobile when he was only 15 years old.His inventions helped to open up the North, and the skidoo introduced a whole new sport in the world.The company he started ina small village is now a Billion-doller buiness!

(1907-1964)

~I think that it is cool how he built the first snowmobile but i dont think that is what iu would want to do, but i think that it was a good invention that he came up with at the age of 15~!



8. Think long and hard about this part and then post an answer to this question on your blog:
e.) One hundred years from now, (in 2109!) imagine that students are learning about Canadian History Makers and they discover you. What will you be remembered for? How were you a Canadian History Maker? You are using your imagination, so think about some things that you would like to accomplish in your life and imagine that you have all the accomplishments of your life to look back on.



Thinking about this if i were discovered in 2109 i think that i would want to be remembered as helping the kids in Youth centers so that all the kids have a home and none of them have to live on the street or in a center.This is something i have been wanting to do for a year or so becuase it makes me sad when i see kids and they have no homes or when they have to suffer becacause they have no where to go.If i were under a categorie i think i would be We Fought because its like we have to fight to find all the childern homes and we cant just say okay they have homes we have to fight and speek out so that we can get out words out and find all the kids out there that dont have homes to get one.If i accompilish this i would be so prould because no child would have to be alone or by them self and they would have a good life.


Write a short profile of yourself, imagining the contributions you have made to the future of Canada. (Write this as though you've lived your whole life. You may have been a phenomenal athlete, the first black Prime Minister, cured cancer...use your imagination!)
Adria B. is a youth Center founder. She helps children find a home so they are not on the street or with out a family.The reason why she started this is because she felt bad for all the kids and didn't want them to have to have a bad life.
