Scott:"So, Mr. Riel, How and when did you die?"

Louis Riel:"Well, I died the 16th of november 1885 and I died because I was capured and hung by the neck until death by the canadian government. I was accused of treason."

Scott:" Very interesting. Were you surprised that you were sentance to death?"

Louis Riel:"Not really because you know I was leading a rebellion against the government. I was wanted."

Louis Riel:"No, I didn't. That is amazing! Woo Hoo!"

Assignment #5

Its really cold!!

Us, having warm coats, boots, gloves and hats warm houses etc make it alot warmer here but we still get cold. How and why would settlers stay in Canada, it would be freezing. They would still have huge fur coats and firewood etc. The settlers might of left in the winter and came back in the summer.

Assignment #3

In 1oo years I do think there will be things like hover cars etc. But a thing that will deffinitly be a problem is global warming. What will people do about that? The artic will melt killing animals and might flood part of North america and other countries in the north. You know , like in that movie the "The Day Before Yesterday." Except North America won't freeze and kill everyone and there will be no tarnados.
