Hey blog, remember my last post where I reflected on the recent Canadian election and talked about voter turnout? I’ll be continuing with the theme of elections and using what I learned from that previous post to introduce to you, the newest unofficial political party of Canada….. the Alpha Vert Party. After building an understanding […]
2021 Canadian Election🗳
It’s September which means I’m back at school, back to writing blog posts, it’s colder outside, and fall weather has returned (which I think is the best type of weather). While I’m outside appreciating fall weather I also notice the red, orange, green, and blue signs placed all around my community because of the […]
Deep Cove and the 1950’s
I recommend that you listen to the podcast episode above before reading this post, especially if you aren’t familiar with Deep Cove or the Heritage Society that’s located there. Those two topics are what brought me to the project where the final product was that episode. The Deep Cove Heritage Society, as I explained in […]

Disney’s Cinderella 1950
Hi blog, do you know the story of Cinderella? You probably do as it’s a story that has been re-told over and over again. I’ve been learning about the years after the Second World War in class, so what does Cinderella have to do with the 1950’s? During this time there were people with time […]
Technology after WWII

Romeo & Juliet, a PLP Production
Hello blog. Considering that you are reading this post in the present, it would be appropriate to say that you are a modern audience. Now that we have established that, imagine logging into Zoom to watch a presentation of grade ten students reading William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet word for word with no changes made […]
Adaptation of an Adaptation of an Adaptation
Hi blog!! As I did a bit of research for this post, I realized how little I know about Shakespeare as a person, but also how little the internet knows. I briefly discussed this in my past podcast episodes when my co-hosts brought up how people even question if Shakespeare was a real person. That’s […]
