First thing is first this is the assignment that i'm going to do http://historypollock.blogspot.com/2009/02/assignment-7-canadian-personalities.htmlSo now i'm going to answer the following questions

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?Really i did like the "We inspired" , "We founded" , "We fought" , We built" and "We governed"because they are a kind of subtitles which are interesting.

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.The personality that interested me the most was Gabrielle Roy. She interested me because she is a writer and i like writing.you will find her picture in this website http://www.civilization.ca/cmc/exhibitions/hist/biography/biographi231e.shtml
