Major Paper “Film Review” – John A: Birth of a Country

Major Paper “Film Review” – John A: Birth of a Country
John Sandfield Macdonald, George Brown, Antoine-Aimé Dorion, George-Etienne Cartier, all favourite “Fathers of Confederation” in one place! Oh, and John A. Macdonald too, of course. For your major paper you will watch a video titled “John A Birth of a Nation,” assess it, and then proceed to write a paper responding to the question: As social historians, do you feel that this is an effective way to portray the “Birth of Canada”? Why, or why not?
In responding to this question you should think about:
· Who is shown in the film – i.e. the historical persons who occupy its narrative
· Who is not in the film – those people who were left out, either deliberately or otherwise
· What historical context is presented or missed
· What historians gain from the perspectives in the film
· And what story is, broadly speaking, being told here
Try to avoid thinking about the “filming” itself (camera angles, shot choices, etc.), since your job in not to be film students but historians. In other words, be sure to concern yourself with the “history” and the story.
For the paper you are not required to access outside sources in your research, but you should go to your text and lecture notes to research the context of the film – i.e. the Confederation Debates, the years prior to and after Confederation, the people depicted in the film, etc. As you write the paper you must make reference to your text and the lectures that you mention (using proper citation styles) to show that you have studied the facts related to your argument.
If you desire further context, you may find it useful to consult the Dictionary of Canadian Biography for background about the people shown in the film (online at http://www.biographi.ca/en/index.php).
The paper itself should be 1,500 to 2,000 words, double-spaced, size 12 font, and follow the MLA Style Guide: https://library.senecacollege.ca/mla

Commitment

Your firm manufactures pesticides for farmers. Your co-worker has noticed multiple times that the boss habitually violates safety protocols while using a particularly noxious pesticide. The boss is careless handling the pesticide container and keeps leaving the open container around. When left open for too long, the pesticide releases vapors that cause dizziness and nausea. When the co-worker brings this to the boss’s attention, the boss becomes very defensive and threatens the co-worker with job termination if he does not keep quiet. His argument is that leaving the bottle open has never affected him adversely and so he feels it is not an issue at all. In reality however, the boss’s negligent behavior is a direct violation of Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) guidelines and safety measures. To make matters worse, the boss enters in the daily safety sheet that “the product has been handled by him with care.”
Based on the above-mentioned scenario, compose a report that does the following:
Describes the OSHA guidelines for health and safety and explain why they were established, and when.
Proposes the course of action you and your co-worker would take in the above-mentioned scenario. Bear in mind that whatever decision you choose to make should be in accordance with the OSHA guidelines and safety measures as well as legal and ethical business procedures. Also, for hypothetical purposes, assume that getting the boss fired is not an option.
Proposes the effective strategies you would bring about in the organization to avoid further violating the OSHA guidelines and safety measures.
Analyzes your step by step plan of action while trying to show the boss the various ways in which his illegal practices would prove to be detrimental to the organization in the long run.
Explains how you would negotiate with your boss to agree to bring about ethical business practices which are in accordance with OSHA standards to replace his current illegal and unethical methods.
Justifies how you would sell the alternatives to your boss if they are more resource intensive than the current decisions taken by him.
Removing yourself from the scenario, takes an objective look at a person in a similar situation. Evaluate the areas in which the person would commit mistakes in decision-making in this scenario. Describe the effects of these mistakes.
Provides an alternative business decision which solves or avoids each of these mistakes. Give reasons for your proposed alternatives being superior business decisions compared to the mistakes committed in their place.
