.... rather than opportunities, or incentives (Long 23). Federal expenditures for public and private low-cost housing have been cut from $30 billion, in 1981, to $7 billion in 1987, and only about 4 million of 10 million eligible households receive federal rental assistance of any kind (Long 29).

Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1127

.... identify with community or region over nation. To gain a Canadian identity we must learn to identify with a nation, Canada. This is one of the main reasons we lack a Canadian identity, because we as Canadians do not really think of ourselves as Canadians.

Many Canadians that I know, come Olympic time or another big world competition, rather that cheering for Canada, will cheer for their home country. A reason for this is because of our multicultura .....

When the elderly adjust their driving habits, they consider the risks they face, but not the external risks they impose on others when they drive. If the elderly are forced to adjust their driving habits further to offset the external risks of their driving, their risk of crash and injury would be reduced and society as a whole would be better off. “As we age, our eyesight begins to fail; our reflexes b .....


Feminism And Gender Equality In The 1990's
Number of pages: 8 | Number of words: 2035

.... was that the educated woman was actually selfish and evil. I remember in particular the searing effect on me, who once intended to be a psychologist, of a story in McCall's in December 1949 called "A Weekend with Daddy." A little girl who lives a lonely life with her mother, divorced, an intellectual know-it-all psychologist, goes to the country to spend a weekend with her father and his new wife, who is wholesome, happy, and a good cook and gardener. And there is love and laughter and growing flowers and hot clams and a gourmet cheese omelet and square dancing, and she d .....
