The loss of a language is the loss of one’s identity. The use of language has long been a significant factor in an individual’s linguistic and ethnic identity. This literature seeks to explore how language has evolved from just being a convenient tool of communication to an expression of one’s beliefs, principles, and circumstances. If language withers away into nothingness, the user loses an integral part of their identity. The literature will also highlight how language is a defining component of ethnic identity and how its accommodation into prevailing linguistic systems affects the users. “What joints all languages, and all men, is the necessity to confront life, in order, not inconceivably, to outwit death: The price for this is the acceptance and achievement of one’s temporal identity. “(Baldwin,1979). This portrays the vital role of a language in an individual’s ability to tackle life and its difficulties. Baldwin also highlights the power that language possesses. He says that it reveals one’s private identity, inner hopes and can connect or divorce one from the community. Language, if not used well, may…
Political social and economic distribution in Canada Introduction The demographic composition of Canada is heterogeneous and thus composes of many ethnic groups. The country is composed of both the minority and the majority groups that struggle to surpass the state’s economic, social, and political demands. Citizens in Canada are from different countries, and thus the country is comprised of different cultures that are incorporated to adapt to the culture and the norms of the land. Canada prides itself on the cultural mosaic, which believes that incorporating different cultures will enable Canadians to emulate and learn the different types of norms and practices. In contrast, the Canadians’ mosaic culture and emulation have not made it easy for the minority and the immigrants to foster and develop their political, social, and economic activities as it is still held by the European heritage and the majority groups of Canada. The following concepts, stereotypes, prejudice, and discrimination, provide valid reasons for the domination and heritage of the country’s political, social, and economic aspects. Stereotypes and the mosaic culture in Canada The concept of stereotype…

The Occupational Safety and Health Act The Occupational Safety and Health Act have indeed improved the safety and healthy working conditions in organizations by their standards. The act has played a significant role in training employees and employers and enforcing rules and regulations that ensure American working men and women are safe in their workplaces.
