After reading it over, create a journal on the following questions:

Do you think Trudeau had just cause to invoke the Act? Why or why not?

Have there been other incidents in Canada's past where you think it could have/ should have been invoked?

Does him invoking it now worry you that it could be used more often in the future?

Any other thoughts?

Russian Invasion of Ukraine

Create a Journal on the following questions:

What do you think of Russia invading Ukraine?

Did they have just cause according to Putin?

Do you think sanctions will help to control Russia? Or do you think Russia will retaliate against countries that place sanctions on them?

Do you think the conflict will grow and actively involve other countries or do you think NATO will allow Putin to claim Ukraine in hopes of maintaining peace for the rest of Europe?
