I am doing an assignment #7 go check it out on the link.
4. a.) Which category of Canadian Personalities interested you the most? Did you like the "we inspired", "we founded", "we fought", "we built" or "we governed" section the best? Why?
I liked all of them, but we fought inspired me the most because people fought for us and risked there live to keep our country safe.
4. b.) Which personality interested you the most? Why? Find an image of him or her to embed (add to the body of your post) and write, in your own words, a short description of what he or she did and why he or she is your favourite. If you get information from any source, you must credit it by creating a link to it (that includes information from the site that I've asked you to look at).
Louis-Joseph, Marquis de Montcalm was the one that interested me the most because he fought against James Wolfe. He beat the other team but then died shortly after. I used google.ca http://www.civilization.ca/cmc/exhibitions/hist/biography/biographi200e.shtml

Terry fox, Celine Dion, and Richard Preston.

His fascination began during a visit to Africa where he was an eyewitness to epidemic seven then-President Bill Clinton who, shortly after reading it, instigated a review of bio-terror threats to the U.S. .[2]The Demon in the Freezer (2002) covers the story of the eradication of smallpox, perhaps the most destructive virus to have plagued mankind. It details the survival of the virus in research labs and bio-weapon programs of Russia and other nations, despite its eradication in the human population. The narrative continues with Anthrax, a bacterial disease of cattle and humans, used in a failed attack against former Senator Tom Daschle of South Dakota.The Hot Zone served as the (very loose) basis of the Hollywood movie Outbreak (1995) about military machinations surrounding a fictional "
