History
1 answer:
Sphinxa [80]3 years ago
7 0

Richard Nixon, the 37th President of the United States, has always been better known for his Watergate Scandal, which led to his resignation from office in 1973. However, this President was also known for the focus he gave to the enviromental topic, which was avid since the 1950´s and became even more important in the U.S public eye after the famous oil spill in Santa Barbara, California, in 1969. Although many criticize Nixon because they say he wasn´t really interested in the environmental movement at all, the truth is that at least for political reasons, Nixon passed several bills that reinforced the preeminence and importance of the environment for the federal government. Aside from the Environmental Policy Act, and the Endangered Species Act, one of the biggest pieces of law he signed was the creation of the Environmental Protection Agency, because it gave the environmentalist movement the power and the influence to control matters of environment from the high seat of the federal government. From being just a civilian movement, the formation of the EPA showed the precedence of nature in American politics and it became the central topic for election and re-election of members of one or the other party. This is why the correct answer is B.

1) Almost all French Canadians opposed conscription; they felt that they had no particular loyalty to either Britain or France. Led by Henri Bourassa, they felt their only loyalty was to Canada. English Canadians supported the war effort as they felt stronger ties to the British Empire.

2) i dont know. sorry

3) The Laurier-Greenway compromise had important consequences for French Canadians and the growing immigrant population. Any community with 10 or more students who spoke a language other than English could establish a separate school. Bilingual teachers would conduct classes using English and the language of the immigrant community.

4) Laurier's Bachelor of Education (BEd) program is highly progressive and future-oriented. Our courses blend 21st-century skills and global perspectives with a focus on the diverse needs of children and youth in today's schools.
