... as Ford, Burger King, Chevrolet, Wendy’s, and Walmart to name a few. Also, many more sports teams are owned in America than in Canada. For example, only 5 hockey teams exist in Canada, while the United States has at least 5 times more teams. Our players must be payed in American funds, and one American dollar is worth $1.50 in Canada. Those are some ways Canada is being swallowed by the United States. However, Canada is a valued trade partner for the Americans. For example, the United States has a dire need for our natural resources, such as water.

To the rest of the audience, those who had a hand in making the movie, he makes a plea not to redevelop these characters in future films. Mr. Leo u ...

... life, faithfulness, generosity, truthfulness, and contentment. The Ten Commandments can be split into two groups of promises. Commandments one to four, tells us to promise to love and honor God. Commandments five to ten, tell us to promise to love and respect our fellow man. Personally, I think the first promise of "integrity" is the most important one out of the ten. It would be difficult to promise to keep the other nine promises, while breaking the first promise of integrity. We promise to have integrity by serving no other gods but God. God wants us to our lives in his hands so he can guide us. We as Chri ...

Inside the Mosque Inside a mosque you will notice that there are no shoes as a sign of respect to Allah (remember Moses-Holy ground). There will be no seats in a mosque but instead prayer mats which will have an arch on them facing the direction of Mecca which all Muslims must turn to when praying.

To look at why keeping one’s culture is important one just needs ...

It is well known that some man today have left their home and families, fame and fortune, to journey by land, sea or air.
