Introduction
Learning Team C has selected nutritional granola bars and the country Canada to enter into a global business venture with. This outline will document pertinent regional, country, and product analysis information which justifies why this new global business venture would be a sound idea for Team C to enter into.
Region Analysis
Canada has regional alliances with numerous countries and has free trade agreements in place with more than 10 countries. These free trade agreements “provide a competitive advantage across a wide range of sectors” states (Foreign Affairs, Trade, and Development Canada, 2014). “Under an FTA, a range of Canadian goods and services benefit from the reduction or elimination of tariff and non-tariff barriers to trade, such as quotas or technical barriers” states (Foreign Affairs, trade, and Development Canada, 2014).
Canada’s Prime Minister Mulroney signed and implemented the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) with Mexico and the United States in January 1994. “NAFTA has generated economic growth and rising standards of living for the people of all three member countries” states (Foreign Affairs, Trade, and Development Canada, 2014).
Canada has many physical environmental features that effect trade. Canada has the largest border with any other country sharing this with the United States which allows for more trade of farming goods near the borders. Canada also links to three oceans: Artic, Pacific, and Atlantic. This allows for Canada to be a leader in exporting fish (Slideshare.com, 2014). The Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River help to create fertile land for farming in Southern Canada. Here they produce and export canola, wheat, and grain across the globe (Slideshare.com, 2014).
Political stability can be considered as a state of peace that is experienced in a country. This can be caused in large part to the activities of the government keeping in mind the best interests of the people. Thanks to Canada’s political stability, the country can be considered a natural playground. The United Nations ranked Canada one of the best countries in the world in which to live and Canada has also been globally recognized for its outstanding quality of life. It is also known for having a stable, progressive political environment and one of the healthiest economies in the world.
Economic conditions in Canada in 2013 throughout the current year 2014 indicate that Canadians have become more careful with their spending habits. Canadians as a whole appear to be holding on to their funds which have resulted in slow financial growth for the Canadian economy. One way to improve the economic growth would be by having an increase in the demand in exports and business investments which could improve the Canadian econ ...

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.
