Hey Monsieur Wanie, for question 3 ATC, I was thinking about doing the Canadian Confederation, the Charlottetown Conference, and the construction of the railway through canada, are those ok?

samz said...

Hey Mr.Wanie!! I can't find anything about Labrador and confederation so I'm not sure what to write for part of #2?

DRU said...

Max: Sounds perfect.

Sam: Newfoundland and Labrador are lumped together for the purpose of this unit... Early on we see isolated fishing villages, self sufficient with no need to join Confederation. Later on, we see the debt incurred by infrastructure building to support shipping and Canada's war effort in both World Wars...

M.Wanie what is productive agricultural land and where can
I find a map for that?

Unknown said...

also m.wanie, for question 10.a) where you have to "find cities in Ontario where the population exceeds 250 000, can I use the 2011 data or do I have to find 2013 data?

DRU said...

Eric: You can call farms and fields that grow things we can eat, productive agricultural land. Look at google earth. Farms look like rectangular shapes of grass whereas forests are irregularly shaped and don't look "groomed". And 2011 data is fine.

DRU said...

Christine: Great link, thanks!

Also M.Wanie can I use this map of Ontario and zoom in so it's more focused on Southern Ontario

DRU said...

Eric: Yes, looks great!

M. Wanie i'm having some trouble finding products "that have recently arrived on supermarket shelves".

Actually never mind M.Wanie I found something, but for anyone else who is stuck here is a good website link: http://www.canadianliving.com/life/best_new_product_awards/photo_gallery__the_2013_best_new_product_awards___winners_in_the_food_and_beverage_category-1.php#top_nav_slide

M. Wanie for question 1 where you have to "Describe in your own words the meaning of the following terms. Explain how each is connected to one of the key areas of: agriculture, urbanization, industrialization or transportation." Can you please tell me if the categories I put the "terms" into fits?
Données Démographiques - Urbanisation?
Productivité - Industriel?
Mondialisation - Urbanisation?
Agriculture de Précision - Agriculture?
Sociétés Transnationales - Industriel?
Combustible de remplacement - Transportation

Also, M.Wanie how long are the definitions for question 1 supposed to be?

DRU said...

Eric: Better come in a bit early tomorrow...

M. Wanie, in class today in regards to my question about whether my map was finished or not, you said that there were other places in Ontario that had more than 250 000 people, so I did some research and this link I found, only has the ones that were already on my map.

Also M.Wanie, for question #3 where you have to create a poster that includes sketches and text boxes to illustrate several ways of bringing agriculture into the city." can I do a full page poster about a greenhouse?

DRU said...

Hey Eric: Sounds like you might have got them all then! Your greenhouse idea sounds good.

Unknown said...

thanks M. Wanie.

samz said...

Hey monsieur wanie, I don't have a compass..is there anything else I could use as an alternative?

DRU said...

Sam: Use a nickel, it's almost the right size.
