Explain to a business owner, or a party considering going into business, the importance of having an understanding, at least in general terms, of particulars of Canadian law that interest you and that may affect the success of the business.

Use at least four different examples of potential business scenarios that will have a better outcome if the principal party or parties ( ie. a business owner or a potential business owner ) informs himself, or themselves of the applicable, relevant Canadian law in advance of taking decisions. Give emphasis to the benefits that will arise from being informed of Canadian law to enhance the business scenarios, perhaps from the perspective of cost, or risk management or social utility or any other objective that you consider important. Write in formal English as you would to a business client or professional person. 

Make sure is correct legal citation if you cite ideas from reference or resources.

This week we have explored the role confusion, or dichotomy of purpose, faced by probation and parole officers. One vivid symbol of this role confusion is the question of whether these officers should carry firearms. What are the pros and cons of probation and parole officers carrying guns?

Proud boys

Give a short description of what they stand for, and their history.  Do you think the group that you chose should be allowed to do what they are doing?  Take a side and explain if you think what they are doing is free speech or hate speech and should it be allowed to occur.  One last thing, do you think, that either one of these groups could become a terrorist organization.

You must use social media to do this assignment. Please list all urls that you viewed and used to come to your conclusion.  I recommend that you use YouTube to review speeches given by either of the two groups.

Digital Literarcy Assignment in Criminal Justice

News, and news sources, are critical to the way we see the world. How do we determine if a news source is credible and the information is both thorough and accurate? This assignment challenges students to compare online articles about the same criminal justice-related or ethics-related issue from sources that fall into loosely “liberal” and “conservative” websites and which show distance difference in coverage. The assignment combines digital literacy (findings and identifying articles on the same topic from two discrete sources) and critical thinking (analysis of the impact that biased information may have on readers). The final version of the assignment is an expansion of the directions outlined above. You will NOT submit an outline, INSTEAD, in a narrative format, the student should briefly explain the subject of the articles, the areas of commonality, and the substantive differences in their coverage. The student should then address the impact that reading only one of the two articles might have on the average reader. Will the reader fully knowledgeable about the issue? Finally, students should blend the information between the two articles into a complete and true explanation of the issue presented such that the reader is well and thoroughly informed. Students should ensure that copies of the two comparative news articles are included as part of the assignment, and not as an attachment to a separate document. The easiest way to do is maybe to combine the narrative and two sources into a single PDF.

short essay/article

You must find a news article that addresses a contemporary public administration issue and submit it to me via Canvas, along with a short essay of no more than one page double-spaced, discussing the central issue of the article (a working link to your article inserted into your essay is also acceptable). You must outline/explain the central issue the article raises, and articulate a position on the issue. The source of the article must be a credible news source such as a local news station, national news agency or newspaper publications. While political and opinion websites are increasingly relied on as news sources, please stick to traditional news sources such as the Pensacola News Journal, Tampa Bay Times, Miami Herald or nationally recognized news publications such as USA Today, Washington Post etc. Local news channel web articles can also be used. Remember that the article must be a news article and not an opinion piece or editorial. Opinion pieces or editorials will not receive credit.
