Assignment #5- The Unbearable coldddddd!!!!!!! brrrr :(

THE cold is unbearable and the people are worn out from this storm of weather and frankly, it is pushing to the limit. My ears swell up if the cold is severe and I am exposed, some have frostbites and it bothers them for weeks, lips tear due to temperatures, and other tiring weakness and allergies.

This leads me to the research and discussion of the survival and the sustenance of the native and French in the lands in which we strive to live in now with its challenges and problems it hands us even though we are so technologically advanced. As I said above the people of this time are suffering from diseases and dying and there are many cures but even so we still complain. Back in the 1800's, the people of Canada had absolutely no cures to the new coming allergies and diseases and were in a bad situation with no way to protect against the eye of the storm. They needed migrants moving in to create a settlement but had many failures due to the housing and heating efficiencies.

Soooo.... the French had wondered how to solve this problem and went to experienced settlers for many years to transact in trade and reasoning for the commandment of cures to these allergies/diseases and wearing of the fur and cover to the homes of the ridden colonies. So they took enough for the people remaining to bear a settlement. IT did cost a lot and the people were concerned but the other solution for people was to go back home. There were many problems in the government too which resulted in the equal treatment to everyone. People needed attention because French could not travel in the ice cold winter and people needed to leave so that's what they did and also along with migration south. People had gone to natives to seek refuge for cures and ways to strive long enough to build a settlement for us too. (future settlers)

Another problem faced was that people had no way of adjusting to the new diseases made and the ones they found their and the cold took over until the spring and so the Canadians had to migrate almost all the time and make many repairs which took a lot of time and toll of money. People needed food but this was getting in the way and trade was being interfered with. People were losing money and becoming poor so the French and other invaders started to begin ties with the first nations as marriage and institutions with languages and they began to live without a challenge of winter with the trade and the power to live with protection.

My parents came to Canada in question and in 1997, about? So they arrived in Montreal astounded by the language and were not able to bear it because my older brother could not proceed in school and we could not understand since people refused to speak English. Even before we were able to face and bear a cold storm and the tension of finding a way to transport, so we ended up in Ottawa a couple of months before the winter with help. So when we chose a house we chose insulated and free heating houses in this very co-op. The winter did not bother us very much because it was not much severe but soon we were prepared forthe unbearable ones with a good van and many good routes. We were settled and had a good home good people and advice so we could live with no problems like sidewalks, buses, road blockage, etc.. We took extra precautions because this was the first time we faced the snow and it turned out that was enough to deal with the severe winter!

BIBLIOGRAPHY
I have visited the following websites for references and here are a few quotes from those informal websites along with links.-
1 is Wikipedia- French colonization of the Americas
I learned a great deal, especially about the French challenges in settlement and the efficient buildup way they used to stop it. Here is a quote and be sure to check it out because it tells all 5 w's as an article, "The French subsequently tried to establish several colonies throughout North America that failed, due to weather, disease or conflict with other European powers."
The second is http://www.collectionscanada.gc.ca
It taught me about the succession and fall of the French in port Royal for the pass through the winter and it also taught me with a supporting quote,"The French formed good relations with the Mi'kmaq and traded with them for furs. The colonists had made it through the winter well, but one day news came from France that the king had ended de Monts' monopoly on fur trading."

Hi Zaryab,

There is a lot of good information here, but I would like to suggest that you try to write in a more simple style. Sometimes, are you are trying very hard to use unusual words, you use some of them incorrectly and your text is difficult to understand. Write your answers closer to the way that you speak.

The great president!
