Event Writing Assignment

The Current Event Writing Assignment measure your interest and degree of engagement in the course materials and classroom discussions by applying what you have learned to a current event. You will read any reputable newspaper article (The Globe and Mail, Vancouver Sun, National Post, The Province) and clearly explain the legal issues that arise in the article. You are limited to using ONLY the law discussed in your textbook. Other than the newspaper from where you found the article, “DO NOT use any other outside sources”.

Since it is short essay, you must write in complete sentences and paragraphs. No point form! As always, be sure to properly cite the textbook and newspaper article only. You will be expected to cite your sources using the MLA style.
