Abstract
This paper examines the work of the World Health Organization, which has achieved many successes in assisting people all over the world to attain the highest possible level of health. The author recommends that the Canadian government increase its support of the WHO to improve the provision of healthcare services throughout the international community.
From the Paper
"The World Health Organization has been successful because of its decades of experience identifying international health assistance priorities, and its addressing of these priorities through six core WHO functions. My study confirms that WHO has provided international leadership on critical health issues and has engaged in partnerships when and where joint action has been needed. Its leadership has shaped the research agenda and has stimulated the generation, translation and dissemination of valuable healthcare knowledge, and has established setting norms and standards, while promoting and monitoring their implementation. (WHO)
"Furthermore, the WHO has articulated ethical and evidence-based policy options, has provided technical support, has catalyzed change, has built sustainable institutional capacity, has monitored international health conditions, and has assessed health trends in every region of the world. (WHO) In the process, this IGO has acquired vast and immensely valuable experience in dealing with global health and healthcare issues, and thus deserves increased support from Canada."

Abstract
This paper discusses Dennis Raphael's book, "Poverty and Policy in Canada." It specifically focuses on the writer's new-found awareness of the pervasiveness of poverty in Canada and what factors - political and economic - appear to be perpetuating it. Finally, the paper looks at some actions ordinary Canadians can take to reduce poverty in their country.
From the Paper
"With the political and business communities not helpful in the war on poverty, it is clear that the general public will have to take matters into its own hands by loudly supporting organizations and interest groups committed to social welfare reform. At the same time, people need to contact corporations and politicians and pressure them to do more to alleviate poverty in this land. Of course, simply complaining about poverty is the wrong approach - and, in any case, a truncated one. Instead, the avenue Canadians should pursue is to take from the aforementioned parties something they want: in the case of businesses, that would be consumers; in the case of politicians, that would be votes. Thus, concerned citizens should boycott selected organizations that will not assist workers and which enthusiastically embrace outsourcing. At the same time, people should use the ballot box to throw out governments that are unresponsive to the poverty issue. This approach, which is really a two-pronged approach, is the best one for the significant reason that interest groups rarely move off of a position unless pressure compels them to do so."

Abstract
The paper looks at how the article discusses how the nation of Canada created laws to enforce boundaries and prevent unwanted immigration into the country in the 1970s. The paper discusses the article's assertion that immigration into Canada has continued to increase, especially with the entry of those classified as "temporary migrant farm workers" into the nation, and, although these individuals request citizenship, they are denied the full rights of Canadian citizenship based on the 70s laws, and therefore, are also denied the rights afforded to other social groups. The paper relates that because this citizenship denial is supported by law, Canadian citizens view this action as "legitimate".
From the Paper
"The article discusses how the nation of Canada created laws to enforce boundaries and prevent unwanted immigration into the country in the 1970s. These laws were intended to stop the large influx of immigrants and solidify a sense of "Canadian-ness" within the country's borders. However, Sharma (****) states that since that time, immigration into Canada has continued to increase, especially with the entry of those classified as "temporary migrant farm workers" into the nation. Although these individuals request citizenship, they are denied the full rights of Canadian citizenship based on the 70s laws, and therefore, are also denied..."

Abstract
This paper examines the growth in online education across Canada and relates this growth to the growing demand placed upon the higher education industry by Canada's increasing population. It explains how Canada's rapid population growth is largely due to its liberal immigration policies and serving the educational needs of its burgeoning population is a challenge that online education seems more than capable of answering.
The writer points out that online education (OE) is delivered exclusively via the Internet or, alternatively, in tandem with or completely through the use of email or other Internet related technologies. The writer concludes that there is a definite mandate to expand OE across Canada as a way to not only service the needs of a growing population but also to deliver higher education solutions to remote populations in need of these services.

From the Paper
"Across North America and certainly in Canada, the rise in online education programs is roughly comparable to the increase not only in secondary education participation but also the overall number of college/university programs being offered. Online degrees and online education programs, although equivalent in many respects to traditionally formatted distance programs, are differentiated from other distance programs in that they are strictly delivered via the Internet whereas distance programs can be delivered in various other media formats. However, although the format may differ the overall concept is the same: to increase the educational options available to learners who seek or need alternate access options relevant to their education needs."

Abstract
This essay compares and contrasts the political cultures of the Canada and the United States, arguing that despite debates over the apparent differences in the political cultures of the two countries, the underlying corporate domination of political relations in both societies suggests that apart from superficial political differences the political cultures of Canada and the United States are likely to increasingly converge in the near future.
From the Paper
"A Comparison and Contrast of the Political Cultures in Canada and the United States Introduction Canada and the United States are two liberal democracies that, although they share a common continent and have had extremely close social, political, economic and cultural relationships for generations, possess radically distinct political cultures."
