Well, we have gotten right back to work this week, taking a good close look at the changes that happened in Canada between 1815 and 1911. After reading the two snapshot articles and making some notes on key issues and developments, we evaluated each population group's well-being. From there, we took the information we had gathered and applied our critical thinking skills to produce our own interpretation of the changes that happened during that 100 (-ish) year period.
Task: Summarize the status of each group in 1815 and again in 1911. Are they doing very well, ok, poorly, and how has each of the categories affected them? Has their overall well-being improved, declined or remained the same? Speculate some of the reasons for the changes (or lack of change) for each of the groups.
