Abstract
This paper discusses the relationship between the Canadian North West Mounted Police (NWMP) and the native people of Canada. It briefly describes the history of the white Canadian's contact with the native people and how the NWMP became involved with them. The paper compares their attitudes towards the Inuit and the Indians and the conflicting opinions of how to deal with the Inuit. Finally, the paper looks at who is to blame for the degradation of the culture of the native peoples of the frontier.

From the Paper
"The North West Mounted Police were dispatch to the frontier as the law enforcement representative of the Canadian government. They protected the native population from further exploitation from the white settlers, and although contemptuous at times, they were not responsible for the demise of the native culture. Similar the introduction of modern culture to the Inuit by the Mounted Police was not the root cause of the demise of their culture. The encounter of modern society was inevitable, and the generous attitude of the Mounted Police avoided the exploitation that was all too often a part of the integration of native cultures into modern society."

Abstract
The paper looks at the multicultural policy that is administered by the Canadian government and concludes that it is marginal. It compares the treatment of the Native People in Canada and reflects on the serious problem in economic, health, and educational disparity in comparison to the larger white population. The paper discusses how the current government enactment of racial equality is not effective, yet the government enjoys a global reputation as being racial harmonious and protecting the Native Peoples from segregation.

From the Paper
"In this study, the alarming realities of racism brought forth on the Native Peoples of Canada has been a serious issue for modern Canada. Although new efforts by the government have been brought forth to help out this racial minority, it is clear that they still suffer under white hegemony through economic and social measures. In essence, the atrocities committed against Native Peoples in relation to their economic stability, are still being committed and reinforced in modern day Canada. In the past twenty years the problem of racism in Canada has not improved for Native Peoples on an economic level."

Abstract
This paper provides an exploratory analysis of the role the Canadian North West Mounted Police and their relationship with the native peoples of the northern frontier. The paper focuses its discussion on the role of the Mounted Police and the suppression of aboriginal traditions, cultures and livelihoods. After recounting some history of interaction between the parties, the paper arrives at a conclusion as to the culpabity of the Mounted Police in the present state of native peoples.

From the Paper
"The North West frontier of Canada was largely unsettled through the later part of the 19^th century, dominated by traders and native peoples. It wasn't until 1870 shortly after the confederation of Canada that interest grew in the frontier. Prior to this the territory was left to the traders, native peoples, black flies and mosquitoes. Trading was largely controlled by the Hudson Bay Company, and unlike the expansion of the American West to the south, the Canadian frontier was for the most part peaceful, and there was no need for the American style military expeditions to control the native peoples. It was at this time it was discovered that Americans ..."

Abstract
The paper explains how although the fur trade proved to be quite beneficial for Europeans, it had the opposite effect on the Native peoples of Canada. The paper discusses the Natives' increased reliance on European goods, the introduction and spread of disease through contact with European colonists, and aggravated tensions between neighboring nations over trading rights and dwindling beaver populations.

From the Paper
"Lastly, trade with Europeans became so desirable that it led to increased competition between tribes such as the Hurons and Iroquois for trading routes and trapping grounds. The Hurons had been previously invited to join the Five Nations Confederacy, and had rejected an alliance with their traditional enemies. In addition, the Huron controlled and lived in areas which were rich sources of fur- a fact that was particularly important at a time when the beaver numbers were dwindling- and made them desirable targets. Although the two groups had always been formidable enemies, the Hurons became an even bigger target and faced the greatest military threat from the Iroquois around "the time when disease had weakened them and their internal cohesion had been reduced by the growth of a Christian faction".2 Although many Hurons believed that differences should be put aside and that alliances should be made with their long-established enemies, most traditionalists distrusted the Iroquois more than the French and chose to align themselves with the Christian-Huron faction instead."

Abstract
The paper discusses the Containment Era that was from 1872 to 1907 after the founding of the Knights of Labour in Philadelphia in 1869. The paper relates that over the next seven years, the Assemblies grew to 168 with over 12,500 members. The paper discusses how unions began to radicalize in the hinterland including the coal miners in Nova Scotia, and, in 1886, the American Federation of Labour (AFL) was formed. The paper then relates that in 1907, the Industrial Disputes Investigation Act was created, which was precipitated by the coal strike in Alberta, and it favoured employees.

Abstract
As a way to begin to understand how Canadian society is structured aa a racist/sexist patriarchy, it is crucial to find examples of these relations in the 'everyday' experiences of social life. This paper will argue that it is easier for the middle and upper classes to deny racism, because they may not be able to identify the way gender and ethnicity are woven through class dynamics. This paper will consider in more detail this notion of the "everyday" as a site for understanding the relations of racism, of sexism, and of class privilege in a Canadian context. This will raise the abstract idea of the "everyday" into concrete forms and particular relations that have a materialist base in society. This paper will also argue that class privilege covers much of the racist and sexist assumptions so that it is difficult for certain classes to identify the whiteness of domination as an economic structure, because they are so implicated in all that the class privilege provides.

Abstract
This paper explores the events, ideas, and developments that most affected or shaped Canadian-American relations between the 1890s up to 1918. In so doing, this paper looks at whether or not relations improved over this period of time and why - or why not - they did. Ultimately, this paper concludes that relations did, in fact, improve. As far as the details of this paper, the essay begins with a lengthy look at several key events - the Alaska Boundary Dispute, the resolution of fishing and sealing disputes in the North Atlantic, the creation of the International Joint Commission, and the advent of the First World War - and how these incidents both made Canada into a nation that deserved respect and cemented closer US-Canada ties.

Abstract
The Native community in Canada has the highest health disparities in comparison to the remainder of the Canadian population. In addition, Native communities lack the resources needed to address their health problems. The vulnerable and high risk situation for Native communities is explained by Aboriginal peoples' visibility as a race which is distinct from all other people in Canada. The numerous and complex problems for Aboriginal people include alcohol and substance abuse, high rates of domestic violence, and high rates of child and teen pregnancies (Health Canada, 2007).

Abstract
The following paper analyzes the topic of 'International' trade unionism, and the respective impact this has on Canadian Industrial Relations. It argues that the broader notion of 'international' in a Canadian context, has more implications when seen in terms of industry and in turn, labor within the U.S. economy. The thesis of this paper, argues that as North American industries expand their 'branch plant' economies into the underdeveloped nations, the bargaining strength and position of the unions in Canada become weakened.

Abstract
There are many problems with native education in Canada. Native drop-out rates are very high compared to non-Aboriginals, while grade levels are comparatively low (Carter, 2001). The problem has deep historical roots, dating back to the imposition of the native residential school system. To remedy this situation, it will be necessary for educators bear in mind historical factors, and to endeavour to compensate for these, as well as to make up for current social factors, such as racism.
