1. What is the YCJA?
The YCJA is the Youth Criminal Justice Act that has been in Canada since 2003. It gives specific rights and different situational trials and sentences to people under 18. The reason is to focus more on rehabilitation for young criminal offenders, instead of ptting them in an adult jail which only teaches them how to be a better criminal


.2. Explain the new "balance" in the act.

Some of the changes with this act have lowered the age from 16 to 14 for youth offenders, and only send the youth offenders to adult court if they are repeat offenders. The media cannot publish the name or pictures of young offenders in the paper or the news. It focus's more on the rehabilitation of the young peoples, so that they can make a new lifestyle that is not related to a criminal life. Giving them a second chance, instead of sending them to adult prison where they will just get worse.

I support fascism because they are very war orrientated and i believe that that is a strong characteristic that will be helpful in the future.
I also believe that it is important for private ownership of buisnesses and land because my mom is an owner of her own buisness and I plan on opening my own buisness when I grow up.
I don't believe in equality because that exiles the private ownership factor that i believe is important.

If it were'nt for this man and Malcom X, black people would not have the rights they do today and america's president would not be an african american.

Civil disobedience is the active refusal to obey certain laws, demands and commands of a government, or of an occupying power, without resorting to physical violence. It is one of the primary tactics of nonviolent resistance. In its most non-violent form (known as ahimsa or satyagraha) it could be said that it is compassion in the form of respectful disagreement. Ghandi showed civil disobedience by going on alot of non-violent strikes such as hunger strikes, he was the leader of india and the indian independance movement. Ghandi was a practitionar of non-violence and truth, he was a great leader..

If it werent for tommy douglas I would not have medicare. That means if I were to be injured my parents would have to pay a big bill for surgery or whatever was needed. But thanks to tommy douglas we pay something like 20$ a month and we get free health care

Nellie McClung was a Canadian woman who grew up and lived in Winnipeg Manitoba. She may be known well for her work with making women "people" so that they could vote, but she is mostly known for "The Person's Case".In April of 1928, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled that the word "person" in Section 24 of the British North America Act did not include female persons. Women were not eligible. Five Alberta women – Henrietta Muir Edwards, Nellie McClung, Louise McKinney, Emily Murphy and Irene Parlby - appealed the decision in Canada's highest court of appeal, all the way in Britain. The decision was made on October 18, 1929, the Privy Council ruled that women were indeed people under law, and so could be summoned to and serve as members of the Senate of Canada. This was what we now call today as "The Person's Case".
