Hi my name is TheeUnknown also apart of UPN and UPN + Z (gotta admit I do not get this CF) = = = = = = = = This is TheeUnknown's page WELCOME!!!!!!

= The stimulus package that the Harper Government implemented did not yield the return that was expected. This cartoon is demonstrating (that) the stimulus package that Harper put in (into) the economy did not yield a sufficient amount of fruit to support the whole country. The tree that grew was weak and produced only one cherry, and the Harper you see is a stereotype (stereotypical) farmer with a pitch fork in hand and suited in coveralls saying “See told you harvest time would come”. The bucket represents the expectations for the tree and clearly it is not going to be filled. The cartoonist gets his point across very clearly (by showing that) saying the tree cannot support the whole country. (The cartoonist gets his point across very clearly: the tree cannot support the whole country 0r the cartoonist clearly gets across his point that the tree cannot support the whole country) The return is very little. W ho is to say we have made back what we put into this stimulus package ? You could (I would) change the cartoon and have Automakers picking off the fruit tree and by the time Harper see the fruit being taken it (is too) to late and there is one cherry left on the tree for the rest of the country. To conclude, when the Harper Government put into (presented or introduced)  the stimulus package did they expect to receive a large return or did they do this for the sake of doing something ? = = Ried, the red marks in your paragraph are changes that would help with the flow of the the paragraph or that would make it grammatically correct. The yellow means that there is something wrong with the sentence grammatically and there are several ways to fix it. I have given you some ideas. Ried, there are just some tiny changes I made. Overall excellent! =

=  Well done Ried. Your thesis statement is clear. I see that you understand this cartoon. I can see, from the comments you made about the changes you would make to this cartoon, that you have an understanding of where the money for the stimulus package was used. = -  TheeUnknown = Yes I agree with you, Ried you've done a good job and explained everything exceptionally. Mike.=

This is a nationalism cartoon (a cartoon about nationalism) in the fact of (because?) another country has nuclear capacity and has (with) the potential to use nuclear energy (it)  as a weapon and that puts Canadians at risk in the event of a nuclear war. The rocket has the face of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in this cartoon who is trying to coerce everybody into believing that he only wants nuclear power to generate power for his country and (while) under his breath is saying he wants world power. I believe this would be a dangerous person to have nuclear capacity in his grasp but then again who’s not dangerous with nuclear power ? F or example, U.S.A. bombed the moon , and South Korea shot missiles into the Pacific Ocean. He has requested, at recent UN meetings , for support of Iran’s nuclear energy program , but this request garnered him significant opposition from the other countries represented at the UN meeting. Nuclear energy has great benefits but do those benefits over power the risk a nuclear war? Ried, just a few little changes that help with the flow. If you are unsure of why I added or deleted just ask and I can explain. Once again, the analysis is solid.

The turkey represents the Liberal party leader, Michael Ignatieff , who is not completely sure if he wants another election and (realizes) that perhaps the accuracy poll numbers axe may chop his head off. Prime Minister Stephen Harper has picked his Thanksgiving turkey, Mr. Ignatieff, as his sacrificial election supper. Most Canadians do not want to go to the polls so soon after the last federal election and are angered at the possibility. If Mr. Ignatieff was to have a vote of non-confidence against the c urrent minority government, it may hurt his current ly held seats in the government, lending possibly more seats to the other minor parties such as the NDP and the Bloc Québécois. As this current government has only been in power for a short period of time and the opposing parties only haggle Mr. Harper. It would not be in the best of interests of Canadians to be forced to go another election. Each election costs millions of dollars of taxpayer’s money. This cartoon is, and is not clearly portrayed in the sense that it takes a little bit more thought but the information is there and I do agree with this cartoon .(this cartoon takes a little bit more thought....) Ried, the blue is a sentence fragment but how to fix it requires a little understanding on my part. Could we discuss this. I highlighted the current because it shows up three times in a very short time. Analysis is once again strong. I would just like you to look at the button on the turkey and mention its significance because it is quite important in the "story" of this cartoon Well done, Ried.

Mike. I'm stealing what Cathie said, in when I read it, i knew EXACTLY what the paragraph was going to talk about. So well done Ried in explaining everything (i'm just stealing from mike and cathhie...not:), it was easy to understand, and definiately not boring! and to me, your best cartoon. But that's just me, Dan?

For example, U.S.A. bombed the moon and South Korea shot missiles into the Pacific Ocean. He has requested, at recent UN meetings, for other nations full support of Iran’s nuclear energy program, but this request garnered him significant opposition from the other countries represented at the UN meeting. Nuclear energy has great benefits but do those benefits overpower the risk a nuclear war?

9.5/10

These are good questions Ried, and it would be interesting to know more about it. Mike.

Oh my, I think i'm going to throw out my Nuclear power for dummies book! This has made me think twice! I'm going to stick with natural gas:)/ Great job with giving history about the cartoon, and questions throughout! It was really a great cartoon (like all your others) to read! But unlike you other cartoons, I noticed that you didn't put anything about what you would change... probably cause you wouldn't change anything? Dan?

The turkey represents the Liberal party leader, Michael, who is not completely sure if he wants another election and realizes that perhaps the accuracy poll numbers axe may chop his head off. Prime Minister Stephen Harper has picked his Thanksgiving turkey, Mr. Ignatieff, as his sacrificial election supper. The badge Mr. Ignatieff is wearing says "we can do better?" most Canadians do not want to go to the polls so soon after the last federal election and are angered at the possibility rather than being persuaded. If Mr. Ignatieff was to have a vote of non-confidence against the minority government, it may hurt his currently held seats in the government, lending possibly more seats to the other minor parties such as the NDP and the Bloc Québécois. As this current Conservative government has only been in power for a short period of time (compared to the later Liberal Goverment that has been in power for many years) and the opposing parties only haggle Mr. Harper. It would not be in the best of interests of Canadians to be forced to go another election. Each election costs millions of dollars of taxpayer’s money. I agree with this cartoon's depiction and with some thought this cartoon is clearly portrayed .===== 10/10

Mrs. Feere I don't understand why the yellow over the period is there. Could you please tell me why.
==I agree with everything you've said in your analysis of this cartoon. It would definately be a bad idea to go through another election. Especially for the Liberals. On top of that we need those millions of dollars, they could be much better spent on other things.== Mike.

Wow, well done Ried. When I first looked at the cartoon, I wondered how you were going to do it... but you did! Very well I might add. The only thing that I have a suggestion about is in the first line, you say, "...The Liberal party leader, Michael, who is...". I know that you mentioned his last name later on, but maybe just *POP* his last name in there. Cause I'm Canadian, but some of us have only been here for not to long, and might not know his name... or some of us have lived here long and STILL don't know his name:) But dude, that was it, Sweet deal man, Dan?

and i can't remember the day
