Date:June 1, 2017

Summary
In this essay, “Time to help people escape the north”, Scott Gilmore tells that there are isolated regions in Canada.  For example, Australia’s northern territory, Papua New Guinea, Siberia, and the state of Para have similar issues.  These regions have high crime rate, and there is problem of violence.  Furthermore, these regions are isolated.  They are separated from the economy, politics, and the rest of society.  These regions need to change.  Likewise, there are problems of Aboriginal peoples in Canada, for they are isolated.  We have to think of a way of solving this problem.  There is one solution of helping people who live in remote regions.  They need to build their life in southern Canada, and they have to leave from remote Aboriginal communities. 

Analysis
I disagree with his opinion because escaping to southern Canada produces different problems.  If a large number of people from the north go to the south, the southern region’s culture will be destroyed by people from the north.  In addition, people from the southern Canada need to reserve their culture.  People from the north need to create their own new culture, and they do not depend on the south.  So, they need to participate in the economy, politics, and the rest of society.  Also, they can make the region prosperous.  If they can built attractive region, it can end the violence and depravation that plagues Canada’s remote region.  Thus, the northern region will not be isolated.  Plus, it helps to develop the economy.

There are differences between male and female conversation.  Conversation is an important communication way; in addition, conversation style may effects human impression. Each person probably has their own talking style. Males have their own talking style. First, males want to get a result in conversation. They consider that a conversation is one way of conveying their thoughts. Males do not tend to require a process and reason, but they need results. Therefore, men’s conversation style is logical and straight. Second, males tend to talk about one topic deeply. They do not change their conversation topic, consequently they are not good at thinking many things at the same time. In summary, men would like to solve problems in the conversation. Females have their own conversation style. First, females want to get agreement in conversation. They consider that conversation is entertainment. Women do not require a sound argument and answers, but they want to obtain agreement and common. They say things indirectly. Therefore, women do not say opposite opinion to other women, and women tend to agree with others. So, women like to talk for a long time. Second, females often change the conversation topics during the conversation. Women are good at catching various aspects of one topic, and they develop one topic. Also, females often chime in conversations. In summary, females would like to listen to their emotions. In conclusion, there are similarities and differences between males and female. Both males and females have attractive characteristic; in addition, they have their own conversation styles.  ]]> 2017-06-29 20:39:03 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatsuoka/gkd7d8yt16yc/wish/177771252 mmatsuoka https://padlet.com/mmatsuoka/gkd7d8yt16yc/wish/178978579 2017-07-18 18:14:37 UTC https://padlet.com/mmatsuoka/gkd7d8yt16yc/wish/178978579
