1 Academic Programs, Degree Requirements, & The Academic Schools Degrees, Majors, and Minors The college offers the Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Music, Bachelor of Science, Master of Arts in Teaching, Master of Business Administration, Master of Education and Education Specialist degrees. Details regarding the graduate degrees appear in the Graduate Catalog. During the first semester of the junior year, the candidate for a degree must complete with the registrar an undergraduate degree plan a planned program of work having the approval of the appropriate academic advisor. This program will include one or more majors, the generaleducation and the general degree requirements. The student may also select an optional minor, completion of which requires at least 18 semester hours. The major requirements vary from area to area, but must include at least 30 semester hours (For foreign-language majors, up to eight of these hours may be waived upon demonstration of proficiency through the initial placement procedure). The major must include 15 hours, and the minor 9 hours, in courses numbered 300 or above taken at Berry. Students completing two or more majors in different degree programs must also meet the appropriate degree requirements for each degree. Special requirements for the B.A. degree and the B.S. degree appear under Major requirements, items 3 & 4, page 46. Although it is not necessary to determine a major upon admission, the student should make that decision no later than the end of the sophomore year. Berry College reserves the right to change degree requirements and to delete majors and minors whenever it deems necessary. Majors leading to undergraduate degrees are available as follows. Concentrations are indicated in parentheses.

3 Requirements for All Undergraduate Degrees Although administrative and faculty advisors are ready to help the student in planning and checking the progress of the degree program, the final responsibility for completing all requirements for a degree rests with the student. If a student has not satisfied all the requirements, her or his degree will be withheld pending adequate fulfillment. The student has the option to graduate under the general requirements of the catalog in effect during the semester of first enrollment or any subsequent year of attendance. Students are required to fulfill the requirements of the academic major as listed in the catalog that is in effect at the time they declare a major. The catalog chosen may not be more than seven years old at the time of graduation. Students are encouraged to track their progress toward graduation and degree completion by using the Degree Audit Report on VikingWeb. To be eligible for graduation, all students must meet the following: General Degree Requirements 1. Complete BCC 099 or BCC 100 satisfactorily during the first term of enrollment. 2. Successfully complete at least 124 credit hours. If a student repeats a course, only one attempt will count towards the required 124 hours. 3. Earn a 2.0 overall GPA for their Berry College coursework. 4. Be in good standing with the college and receive faculty approval for the degree. 5. Complete the General Education sequence as specified in the catalog in effect during the semester of first enrollment or any subsequent year of attendance and a major as specified in the catalog that is in effect when they declare the major. 6. Complete an Undergraduate Degree Plan outlining courses required for the major. 7. Complete with the registrar early in the senior year (at the completion of 90 semester hours) two semesters before graduation, an application for graduation, which will indicate requirements met, and those remaining to earn the degree. Students who fail to complete an application by the deadline may be withheld from graduation until next term. Writing Across the Curriculum Requirement Complete a minimum of two writing-intensive (I) courses totaling six semester hours at the 300 level or above (or in some approved instances, at the 200 level or above) for each major. Ordinarily, these courses are to be completed within the major. Students enrolled in the dual-degree nursing program must complete two writing-intensive (I) courses totaling a minimum of six semester hours, including PSY 221I and at least three other hours at the 300 level or above in any field of their choice. Major/Minor Requirements 1. Complete the requirements for the major or minor specified in the catalog in effect the year you declare your major or minor. 2. Complete at least 15 hours in the major or 9 hours in the minor in courses at the 300/400 level taken at Berry College. 3. If pursuing the B.A. degree, successfully demonstrate competence in a foreign language at the intermediate level of study. Majors in one of the foreign languages take two other courses of at least three credits each in a second foreign language (or Berry College 49 Catalog
4 the equivalent by examination), or three courses in the humanities approved by the major department, in addition to courses counted toward the general-education requirements or humanities courses in the major. Foreign-language majors who complete a second major and/or an education minor are exempt from this requirement. 4. If pursuing the B.S. degree, complete successfully a minimum of six courses of at least three credits each (including courses counted toward the general-education requirements) that support the character and intent of the B.S. degree (here defined as quantitative, mathematical, empirical, statistical or laboratory-oriented). Courses meeting this requirement are noted by the department offering the course; the Registrar maintains a list of all approved courses. 5. Earn a 2.0 overall average in the major field (including all coursework whether or not taken at Berry). Note that some majors require a minimum grade for certain coursework within the major. 6. Complete the assessment(s) within the major and general education as required in the final term of enrollment. 7. In cases where courses may be used to satisfy more than one degree requirement, at least 15 hours in courses numbered 300 or above counted toward the major must be used solely for that requirement. At least 9 hours in courses numbered 300 or above must be used solely to satisfy the requirements for each minor, unless otherwise specified by the discipline. Residency Requirements 1. Complete a minimum of 62 hours in residence at Berry College. 2. Complete the last two semesters in residence at Berry College. No more than three courses (9 hours) of the last 30 hours may be taken off campus. 3. Complete 15 hours in the major in residence at Berry College. These 15 hours must be in courses numbered at the 300 level or above. 4. Complete 9 hours in the minor in residence at Berry College. These 9 hours must be in courses numbered at the 300 level or above. Cultural Events Requirement Attend a minimum of 24 cultural events in the four-year program, or an average of 3 cultural events per semester if enrolled less than four years. Cultural events must be completed no later than the last day to withdraw from a course in the semester the student intends to graduate. Double Majors, Double Degrees, and Dual Degrees A student is typically awarded one of three degrees at graduation: B.A., B.S., or B.M. A double major is earned when a student completes all the major requirements for two majors that lead to the same degree (either a B.A. or B.S.) and the requirements specified for that degree. A student may earn double degrees (some combination of a B.A., B.S., or B.M.) by meeting all requirements for both majors and both degrees including 32 independent hours earned solely for the second degree. Both degrees must be listed on the application for graduation Berry College 50 Catalog
5 Berry College has two dual-degree options with Georgia Tech (Engineering) and Emory University (nursing). Students should complete the degree requirements for these special programs. Upon completion of the necessary components, and receipt of the transcript from Georgia Tech or Emory, Berry College will award the Bachelor of Science degree. Students will earn the second degree from Georgia Tech or Emory upon completion of their degree requirements. Required Basic and General-Education Courses Berry College Courses Berry College Courses are those extending beyond the disciplinary boundaries of any one department and representing educational opportunities made available to students by the college as a whole. In this category are educational-growth and thematic courses. BCC courses may not be used in satisfaction of general-education requirements, other than electives. Only with the written permission of the appropriate school dean may BCC courses be used in the major or the minor. The Dean of Academic Services is the director of Berry College Courses, and further information about these offerings may be secured from that office. General Education Courses The courses required for the bachelor s degree at Berry College are designed to assist students in becoming literate, cultured and creative individuals who are also responsible citizens of a democracy in a changing world and who are prepared for lifelong learning. Students will engage in learning that fosters clear and analytical reasoning, effective communication, appreciation of artistic excellence, understanding of scientific and mathematical inquiry, and the ability to make informed and morally responsible choices. They should also acquire that breadth of vision that comes with a historical consciousness and an awareness of cultural and global diversity. The proper cultivation of such a vision emphasizes the best thought and greatest achievements of humankind throughout the course of recorded history. The courses in the general education curriculum are designed to provide a foundation of liberal learning and to expose students to a breadth of academic disciplines. Students should work with their advisors to select courses that may be needed as prerequisites for advanced work; freshmen are strongly urged to complete ENG 101 and ENG 102 during their first two terms of enrollment Berry College 51 Catalog

7 The Academic Schools Berry College is divided into four academic schools, the Campbell School of Business, Charter School of Education and Human Sciences, Evans School of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences, Arts, and Social Science, and the School of Mathematical and Natural Sciences. Campbell School of Business Dean: John Grout, Green Hall, Room 212 Telephone: (706) FAX: (706) The Campbell School of Business offers degree programs in: Accounting (B.S.), Economics (B.S. or B.A.), Finance (B.S.), Management (B.S.), and Marketing (B.S.). The Campbell School of Business serves its stakeholders within the context of the mission of Berry College. The principal stakeholders are (a) those who seek the benefit of education, either directly as students and alumni, or indirectly as employers, (b) members of the public and private sectors, including regional businesses and non-profit organizations in north Georgia and beyond, and (c) the academic community, both at Berry College and at large. The Campbell School educates students through formal and informal programs, placing high priority on the education of the Head, the Heart and the Hands, and on currency of curriculum. The Campbell School's process of continuous improvement facilitates our serving these stakeholders' evolving needs. Mission The Campbell School of Business provides an excellent liberal arts-based business education that engages the Head, Heart, and Hands, while serving the academic and business communities through appropriate research and services. Accredited Programs Berry College is fully accredited by the AACSB (The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business). Campbell School of Business also offers an accredited Master of Business Administration program. More information is available at Admission to Degree Programs in the Campbell School All entering freshmen and any transfer students who meet the Berry College admissions standards can be admitted into any of the degree programs in business or economics. Students may declare a major in Accounting, Economics, Finance, Management, or Marketing. Alternatively, a student may enter the business school as a prebusiness-undeclared student. This allows students the opportunity to experience some of the areas of business before declaring a major. Prebusiness-undeclared students must declare a major area prior to filing for graduation. When a prebusiness-undeclared student declares a major, the student's major requirements will be governed by the catalog in effect at the time of declaration. Studies in Business and Economics The curricula of the Campbell School of Business are built upon a foundation that represents the synergistic blending of undergraduate and graduate programs, of teaching and research, of Berry College 53 Catalog
8 development of technical skills, and broad concern for individual, social, and economic values. This solid foundation makes the school a vital and exciting place to study and work. The faculty is committed to fulfilling the Berry College mission of educating the whole person: the Head, Heart and Hands. This commitment is evident throughout our curriculum and interactions among students, faculty, staff and the business community. The Campbell School experience inspires students to work conscientiously to add value for clients and create a better life for fellow workers. Students become an integral part of their business endeavors, as well as engaging in service to their community. The undergraduate curriculum has three components: a solid foundation in the liberal arts, grounding in a common body of skills and knowledge important to the business professions, and opportunities for specialization in one of our majors. Through its curriculum, the Campbell School of Business stimulates critical thinking, helps students develop communication skills, provides a forum through which students can integrate and synthesize knowledge and fosters ethical decision making and leadership. The concept of "Head, Heart and Hands" applied to the Campbell School of Business Head The curriculum challenges our faculty and students and responds to the needs of a rapidly changing business community. There are three goals for developing the Head: knowledge, basic skills and advanced skills. Knowledge includes the basic business information that is needed to engage in the modern business economy. Basic skills include general understanding of accounting and economic principles, business statistics and mathematics, computer skills, and oral and written communication. Advanced skills include the ability to demonstrate critical thinking and the ability to analyze and integrate complex information. Heart Education of the Heart includes two goals: to increase students' appreciation of other cultures and backgrounds and to enhance students' commitment to social responsibility. Students in the Campbell School of Business are exposed to a variety of cultural experiences to help them appreciate the rich diversity of the modern business environment. Team-based learning fosters an appreciation of the perspectives of others. The program includes service requirements beginning in the freshman year and continuing in student organization activities and in some courses. Social responsibility and sound business ethics are a consistent theme woven throughout the fabric of the curriculum. Hands The goal of educating the Hands is met through student participation in campus organizations and work experiences. Student organizations such as the Executive Round Table, the Berry Accounting Association, Beta Gamma Sigma, Omicron Delta Epsilon, the Berry Investment Group, and the Berry Association of Marketers facilitate contact with the business community and encourage exchange of ideas and discussion. Opportunities for student work exist college Berry College 54 Catalog
9 wide and in the business community. Head, Heart and Hands Balance is important in both intellectual and personal growth. Synthesizing the components of the three areas leads to continuous personal growth and begins a career of lifelong learning. By balancing development within the three areas, students have a grasp of business knowledge and its application and are able to express informed opinions about business-related topics, evaluate situations in an ethical way and know when and how to apply techniques and concepts to situations to match their own interpersonal styles.

Finance Major (63 hours) Finance is the art and science of managing money. The main goal of the finance major is to expose students to three primary areas of finance: (1) managerial or corporate finance, (2) investments, and (3) money and capital markets. Knowledge of all three areas and a broad business background are important for success in the finance field. Corporate finance covers the role of the financial manager, especially pertaining to the issues of capital budgeting, capital structure and financing decisions. The investments area deals with the risks and returns associated with individual investments, with stocks, bonds and mutual funds and the basics of portfolio management. Students also gain familiarity with the workings of the stock market and buying and selling stock. A study of money and financial markets provides an understanding of the role of financial markets, institutions, and instruments in the economic environment in which businesses and other agencies operate. Concepts such as the time value of money, understanding and interpreting financial statements and ratios, risk and return, asset valuation and financial planning run throughout the curriculum. Berry College also provides students with a hands-on experience managing a real investment portfolio that started out with a $100,000 balance. The Berry Investment Group (BIG) is a student organization dedicated to educating students and managing the portfolio.

Department of Biology School of Mathematical and Natural Sciences Majors Offered: Biology (Concentration I and II), Biology with Secondary Education Certification; Minor Offered: Biology Professors Cipollini, and Conn; Reid Professor Graham; Associate Professors Davin, Hall, Morgan and Mowry; Assistant Professors Borer and Carleton; Lecturer Orloff Science Center, Room 366B Telephone: (706) FAX: (706) Courses leading to a degree in biology are taken by students pursuing careers in research, teaching, and an array of professional vocations. Ecology, medical technology, genetics, paleontology, biotechnology, marine biology, optometry, medicine, veterinary medicine and dentistry are but a few specific fields chosen by the successful biology major. Almost all graduate schools and professional institutions require specific national entrance tests, and the majority of students pursuing advanced degrees or professional training will take either the Graduate Record Examination (GRE), the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT), the Veterinary College Admission Test (VCAT) or the Dental Admission Test (DAT). Because these tests include a significant biological component, the department has designed its introductory curriculum in part to reflect this coverage. Individual programs, concentrating study in a particular area and including an internship or extended study at another institution or laboratory, such as marine biology, are available with appropriate administrative consent. Research opportunities in biology are available through the student work program and BIO 498 (Directed Study), and cooperative projects can be arranged with other departments. Highly motivated seniors with an overall grade point average of 3.3 or better may choose to enroll in BIO 499, Senior Thesis, and conduct an original research project with a mentor of their choice. The department sponsors activities through the Biology Club, Sigma Xi and the Tau Alpha Chapter of Tri-Beta, a national biology honor society. Biology Major Concentration I (67 hours) or Concentration II (63 hours) Concentration I is designed for students planning to attend graduate or professional school in biology or the health sciences. Concentration II is for students who have interests other than graduate or professional school in biology or the health sciences (i.e. secondary education, science journalism, double majors, business minors).

Only one of these electives may be chosen from the following: ANS 105, BIO 103, BIO 105, BIO 106, BIO 108 or PHY 101. Students may not use CHM 102 for this elective credit. CHM 341 may be used as an elective course, but will not count toward the chemistry major or minor. BIO 103 may not be used as the math and science elective credit if the major has first completed BIO 111. In addition, at least two of these courses must be non-bio courses. Students having a minor in secondary education may substitute EDU 499 for one of the science electives. A number of courses in marine biology are offered through the Gulf Coast Research Laboratory (GCRL), Ocean Springs, Mississippi, (www.usm.edu/gcrl) during the summer term. Students may register for the courses as a transient and up to two courses taken at GCRL will count as electives toward a major in biology. The Berry College biology department is also affiliated with the Highlands Biological Station (www.wcu.edu/hbs/). One of these courses can count as a biology elective, with departmental approval. Biology Major with Secondary Education Certification (99 hours) Students planning to become certified to teach biology in Georgia public secondary schools must complete a major in biology and a minor in education.

Modern chemistry is a broadly diverse science that is positioned at the interface of physics, biology and mathematics. The curriculum, which is one of only 16 chemistry programs in Georgia accredited by the American Chemical Society (ACS), combines a solid background in fundamental principles of chemistry with firsthand experiences using state-of-the-art laboratory equipment. Because of chemistry s centrality in the sciences, the chemistry and biochemistry majors are an excellent choice for those interested in a diverse range of careers, including medicine, dentistry, engineering, pharmacy, teaching or as a research scientist for government and industry. Students are highly encouraged to engage in research opportunities in a variety of chemical fields within the department through CHM 498. Students involved in research regularly travel to regional and national conferences with faculty members to present their research results, and many have had their research published in scholarly journals. Summer research opportunities both on and off campus are also available. The department Berry College 65 Catalog
20 sponsors activities on and off campus through the student-affiliate club, which has received honors and commendations from the American Chemical Society in recent years. Objectives for Major The Chemistry and Biochemistry Bachelor of Science degrees prepare students for a wide variety of science-related careers. A sampling of these careers are provided on the Chemistry Department webpage under Careers General-education Courses Any course in chemistry with a laboratory component for which the student is prepared may be taken toward fulfillment of the general-education requirement in science. Chemistry 102, which is the chemistry general-education course taken by most non-science majors, may not be used to fulfill the requirements for a major or minor in any science area. Chemistry 250 may not be used to fulfill the requirements for a major or minor in any science area other than the environmental sciences. American Chemical Society Certified Majors Chemistry and Biochemistry majors have the option of obtaining a B.S. degree certified by the American Chemical Society (ACS). The ACS-approved program contains greater depth and is ideally suited for those wishing to pursue graduate or professional studies upon graduation; however, all majors would benefit from the more rigorous curriculum. Because the program requires a specific number of course and laboratory hours, students should consult with their advisors to ensure they will meet these requirements. The department will track each student s progress toward the degree and will award a certificate from the American Chemical Society to the ACS-approved student upon graduation. Therefore, students who complete the ACSapproved program must notify the chemistry department chair. Biochemistry Major (55-57 hours) Required Foundational Courses: 20 hours CHM 108 General Chemistry I CHM 109 General Chemistry II CHM 221 Organic Chemistry I CHM 341 Biochemistry I CHM 315 I Analytical Chemistry or CHM 331 I Physical Chemistry: Foundations Required In-Depth Courses: hours CHM 222 Organic Chemistry II CHM 342 Biochemistry II CHM 490 Seminar and one additional chemistry WI course at the 300 level or higher 3-4 hours Additional Science and Mathematics Requirements: hours PHY One-year college-level sequence 8 hours MAT 201 Calculus I Berry College 66 Catalog

I'm not sure how we've forgotten to post on the Construction Waste Management done for LEED for Homes on the 100K House project? Let's do a little recap here for all those interested. First we will briefly go over the LEED requirements and credits, and then we'll take a look at the methods we used and the results.
LEED for Homes Waste Management Requirements
Prerequisites – Construction Waste Management Planning
- Investigate and document local options for waste diversion from landfills including cardboard packaging and beverage containers the end up on the site.
- Document the diversion rate for construction waste. Separate demo from new construction portions of a project if applicable.
Credits – Construction Waste Reduction
Reduce or divert waste from landfills to a level below the industry norm via either of the two options below:
- Reduce construction waste – Generate 2.5 pounds (0.016 cubic yards) or less of net waste per square foot of conditioned floor area. See chart below for score.
- Increase waste diversion – Divert 25% or more of the total materials taken off the construction site from landfills. See chart below for score.
100K House Construction Waste Management Results
We decided to go with the second method of verifying our diversion rate in order to gain our points in this section of LEED for Homes. It's actually quite easy in Philly to do this thanks to a company conveniently named Construction Waste Management. All of the charts and pics that follow in this post are courtesy of CWM's final report to us.
The beauty of this company and others like it across the country is that nothing changes on the site for the contractors. They deliver a standard dumpster to your site, you throw your trash it in like normal and they come take it away when it's full. They then take the cans to an offsite location where they sort all of the material that can be recycled before sending off the remaining trash to the landfill. They even send you a lovely record of all of you dumpsters used per project which is exactly what the LEED folks are looking for in terms of verification for these points.
Here is our summary chart from Construction Waste Management:
This chart represents the aggregate total from three cans we used on the 100K House project. Since we diverted over 75% of our waste from landfils, we earned 2.5 points for this section in LEED. That's just half a point from the maximum 3.0 points that can be earned for diverting over 88% of your waste. Not bad and I think a full point higher than we accounted for in our initial LEED checklist.
Construction Waste Management Images
To finish up this post, we thought you guys and gals might enjoy a more detailed look into the Construction Waste Management company's operations. There are many similar companies sprouting up all over the country and their rates are often lower than traditional waste companies as they have an extra stream of income from selling the recycled materials they claim from construction sites. So it's greener and cheaper! That looks nice in print.

Canada was founded in 1867 by rejects from the American Revolution led by John A. MacDonald. They claimed to be Loyalist to the British but in reality they just weren't awesome enough and their guns weren't big enough to be American. Instead of setting up a real independent country like America they decided to allow the King to remain as the head of state. This is why the Queen of England is all over our monopoly money. The King could not be bothered with Canada so he lets the Governor General to do his talking for him. Governor General is a great gig you get to travel all around the world on the taxpayer dime but when actual real decisions are made you get moved to the kids table so that the important people can talk. The Prime Minister and his Parliament make the real decisions, the leader as of now is Stephen Harper. He now has a majority government therefore he listens to his opposition tells them to stick it and does whatever he wants anyways. We also have a Senate in Canada but they mainly stick around for comedic purpose today.
The earliest settler in Canada was Jacques Cartier in 1534. He built a bridge and named in his honour and it hasn't been repaired ever since. The early settlers believed they had found to route India but ended up finding a new world. When they met the natives of the area they didn't want to lose face so they called them Indians. As a tribute to their ignorance many people continue to call them Indians today. They hunted for beaver but after realizing that the men far outnumbered the women they settled for trading furs. Their main trading partner was the natives which was great because if you want to do trade it's always great to have a trading partner that has no concept of the value of money...especially when you don't explain to it to them. It's like taking candy from a baby. The settlers weren't exactly making a killing either. The economic system at the time was Mercantilism where the colonists did all the hard work of hunting and gathering animals just so they can sell it to the mother country overseas at a cheap rate. It then got manufactured and sold back to them at a ridiculously high price. In short they got screwed at both ends....That's what she said. Eventually the King of France claimed the land and called it New France. Ya just what the world needed another France. They set up a government led by the Governor and the Intendant but the main power was in the hands of the Catholic Church...like so many poor young boys. France had trouble settling the land because it was as cold as fuck and there were no women around. It also didn't help that there was a bunch of angry Indians around who were starting to get suspicious about losing all their land. The King decided to offer up free land to anyone who was dumb enough to move to New France. It was called the Seigneurial system...the land would be given to Lords and they would hand out the land to peasants who would become their indentured servant for life. We have a system quite similar to it today called sub prime loan mortgages... just ask anyone who set up one of those mortgages. The King also shipped over thousands of under aged women who were too poor to have a say in the matter in order for them to reproduce with the men of the colony. The plan was considered a success yet when R Kelly does this we call him a pervert and a scumbag. The population started to grow rapidly mainly cause the people we're breeding faster than Angelina Jolie after she has been out of the press for a few months. It reached a point where a real imperial power ie Britain took an interest in Canada. They waged war with France. After waving a white flag on the Plains of Abraham for about 7 minutes the British finally accepted the surrender of the French.
When the British took over they tried to lay the smack down and assimilate the French. This didn't take well so they passed the Quebec Act in 1774 which allowed the colony to remain Catholic and French. At the same time there was a Revolution brewing south of the border which would lead to the creation of the greatest country in the Universe....if you're not sure about that just ask any American. When the war ended all the losers from the war had to find a place to run away to. Out of sheer laziness many of them came to Canada. The English population grew so rapidly that the Government had to pass the Constitution Act in 1791 which separated the colony into Upper and Lower Canada. Upper Canada was mainly English and Protestant and Lower Canada was French and Catholic. Upper Canada would later go on to be afflicted with the most horrible of conditions which is of course rooting for the Toronto Maple Leafs....yuck. Eventually the people wanted a say in decisions of the government they called it responsible government. They started rebellions but the rebellions got crushed faster than a hippie protest on a college campus. The economic system had changed over the years and Britain's economy was based on free trade which pretty much means opening up borders and removing taxes with other countries when doing trade. It also apparently means that all our jobs go to China and Mexico where 8 cents an hour isn't a horrible wage. They tried to appease Canadians by passing the Act of Union which united Upper and Lower Canada. It also let them vote for meaningless positions of power but it didn't work. Canada was becoming a major headache for Britain so they finally let them have their independance. In 1867, John A. MacDonald got liquored up AGAIN...look it up its true, he got his politician buddies together and they founded Canada.
When Canada became a country they had some growing pains. They're main fear was that they thought the Americans were gleefully waiting for an opportunity to chew them up and spit them out. MacDonald implemented the National Policy which placed tariffs on foreign goods, helped build railways and tried to increase immigration. Some parts of this 19th Century modern way of thinking is still in place today. Have you ever tried to cross the border with an extra bottle of Jack Daniels? They treat you like you're Osama Bin Laden. They also had problems with Natives. Louis Riel and his Metis clan created problems for the Government but when he was finally captured and punished he didnt hang around for very long. The Government passed the Indian Act which clearly defined the rights of Indians. I believe their rights now consist of manufacturing cigarettes which they can't legally sell to outsiders. As the 20th Century was ushered in, the world was in turmoil. I believe somebody shot someone who was wearing a funny hat and all of a sudden World War 1 broke out. Canada joined the war effort mainly because Britain told them to. Quebec was not happy about being drafted into war but the leaders in Ottawa pretended not to understand French and ignored them. After the war there was a period of prosperity. Production went through the roof. It's a brilliant concept actually you produce a bunch of crap without bothering to check to see if people are actually buying your stuff. Well that is until people realize that you're not actually selling enough stuff. There was a stock market crash in 1929 and Canada went into a great depression. The only profitable business was selling liquor to respectable American businessmen such as Al Capone. The economy was on the fast track to hell but a man with a funny mustache and some serious issues with anyone with a Stein or Berg in their name changed everything. Canada declared war on Hitler and Nazi Germany and entered World War 2 in 1939. Once again the French were opposed to the war. Wow what a shocker... Do you see a pattern developping here? They were quite content surrendering to the Germans and playing both sides of the fence like their French counterparts overseas. During the war effort Canada worked their way out of the depression. It turned out that when finally given an opportunity Canadian women could actually produce something other than babies.
After the war the men returned and lets just say they needed to release some tension. They had been at war for 4-5 years where the male to female ratio was worse than a Star Trek convention in some cases. There was a huge baby boom after the war. In Quebec, the french decided to put their fate in their own hands. Apparently having most of the population and none of the wealth wasn't good enough for them anymore. Go figure. There was a Quebec Nationalism movement which caused a Quiet Revolution. At the same time there a women's liberation movement throughout Canada. For some stranger the women thought that burning their bras would anger the white male power structure...i guess women really don't understand men. Meanwhile in Quebec, industries like Hydro became property of the Quebec Government. They also took over the schools and hospitals from the Catholic Church. Surprisingly, people who don't believe in evolution might not be best suited to be in charge of science and medicine. Eventually the movement got out of control and broke off into a separatist movement. When the separatist Parti Quebecois party got into power they passed some brilliant laws like Bill 101 which prevented their own people from learning English. You know when you live next to the largest economic power in the WORLD you really should expect THEM to learn YOUR language. There were referendums to seperate in 1980 and 1995. In the end end the separatists lost on both occasions....Quebecers might be crazy but quite not batshit crazy. The 1980s were dominated by Brian Mulroney and the Tories. He passed a free trade agreement with USA but it doesn't seem to apply to anyone who wants to buy a flat screen TV in Plattsburgh. On the bright side there is now a Wal Mart in every hick town in Canada. In the 1990s while Europe was adopting a common currency, Canada decided to adopt the Parker Brothers currency. Our monopoly money tanked to under 70 cents American on the dollar. The dollar has recovered but Canada's economy has taken a deeper dive than Lindsay Lohan's career in the last few years.
