The USA & Canada are both multi-cultural countries. Their origins begin with atroscities! Go back, way way back and write about the Fronteir Pioneers who came from every corner of the globe and through the centuries, built a Country (no matter what anyone says),that EVERYONE wants to live in! Democracy,Opportunity,Education and much more. You finish it. As usual, being a Teacher, I am assuming that you left this "assignment" to the very last minute and that my dear boy, is the reason you have a "thinkers block"! I know you have had the time to do this assignment, but you put it off, didn't you? Well, suffer the consequences - or - get at it Right Now. Good boy!
