Open Emporium

I remember well when Justin Trudeau made headlines in 2015 for a spot in Canada's coveted top office. His victory as a member of the federal Liberals made a big splash that was felt in many countries around the world. I guess we can see why his name was plastered all over international newspapers, magazines and news outlets from different television channels. Even people who haven't even heard of Canada's current prime minister at the time learned about him through these sources of information. He is young, charismatic and seemed progressive and open for opportunities. But not all that glitters is gold. It has been over five years since Justin Trudeau has been Canada's Prime Minister. We have seen plenty of surprises, and I have been surprised as well. Trudeau has done great things for the Canada too and I have noted them as well.  Like any politician, a candidate to any countries' top executive post as Commander-in-chief makes a bunch of promises to encourage the v...

If you have been paying attention to class and brushing up on historical evidence and accounts, you could pinpoint many instances of white supremacy. This isn't a case of racism in one country. It appears in many countries around the world which makes it another global pandemic that has ravaged the world for decades. How did this come about? We shall analyze its roots and determine the damage it has caused in present terms. White supremacy is the belief that your white skin and genetics are irrevocably superior over others with different skin color. In their minds, the white Anglo-Saxon protestant measures up to be the consummate example of genetic perfection. This belief alone has caused tremendous conflict, war, distrust, hatred, and death. I don't know the numbers but I believe this form of racism is responsible for the deaths of millions of people around the world. They were either killed in an armed conflict or were executed by a heinous and hostile party. But white suprem...

The idea of socialism has been around for a long time. In the transformative years of the 19th Century, socialism started to make a gradual appearance in the areas of social benefits, worker's unions, shifts with hourly restrictions and social security. It was a revolution for the common human being. But since during the soviet union, the rise of communism and its downfall from international stardom in the early 1990s, many people have linked socialism to evil and destruction. To clear this up, I would like to discuss the benefits of socialism and how it has helped hundreds of millions of people around the world. Socialism is the equitable and egalitarian dissemination of resources and goods to the citizens of the country, which is controlled by the government, of course. It also means that everyday citizens should be lending a helping hand to others who have experienced a lot of unfortunate events in their lives. Our lives would be completely different without its windfall. We ha...

An enormous amount of kids undergo trials at schools and in other facilities in public as they grow up. At this stage of their lives, children are still learning and understanding what the world is like and how they can fit in. Imagine how difficult and confusing it must be for them when they encounter bigotry, discrimination and racism in a classroom, swimming club, shopping mall or somewhere in town. The affront can't be predicted - no one knows when it could strike. In the end, a child is never fully prepared to deal with the sudden approach of vitriol and hateful dogma. Depending on the severity of the affliction,  the child could walk away with life-changing experiences, for better or for worse. Parents are supposed to teach their children the differences between right and wrong, morals, ethics and other tools to effectively participate in society as a fully functioning human being. I find no other place in a community is more critical in shaping a child's mind than a sc...
