Tuesday's Assignment

So, here's something to do before some of you move on to Workplace English ... Was it hard coming to Canada? Is it hard trying to become a citizen?

Is this cartoon funny? Why or why not? Discuss with a partner.
Here are your tasks:
  1. Watch this video, and take dictation from 0:52 to 1:34. (For transcript see below.*) Then listen with a partner, and make corrections before publishing.
    1. In the article, locate the six bullet points listing changes in immigration policy.
    2. In a group of 3 or 4, discuss these points.
  2. Create a short instructional on the appeal process for family sponsorship. Read and record a chirbit in your voice for your partner oftheir writing from Monday morning's assignment. Allow them to publish the audio link on their blog, and vice versa.

Canada is a part of the North American (Free) Tread Agreement. NAFTA is very important to us. Our relationship
of this continent has been soured over 10 years Stephen Harper who does not get along with the American
president and who has strange relationship with Mexico too extremely high degree. We need to ensure that Canada
is a country that is accepting refugees who are fleeing persecution from all source of difference places around the
world for all difference reasons. We're committed (to) working to ensure that those applications process responsible
and speedy fashion. But we know there are other way(s) doing that. They are simply slapping Mexican citizen visa.
That hurt Canada tourism. That hurt relationship with our continent partner and quite frankly hurt our economical
growth with NAFTA. Canada needs to do right by our continental neighbors and a part of that is removing the visa
restriction on Mexican citizen.
