Answer:
Pros - Canada’s diamond industry was launched from a standstill in the late 1990s after the discovery of one of the gems at Point Lake, NWT. Since then, the industry has surged and Canada now produces 15 percent of the world’s diamond supply and is the third largest producer of diamonds after Botswana and Russia.
Diamond mining has also led to a marked increase in Northern jobs.
Cons - Environmental impacts. Issues such as destruction or loss of habitat, water contamination, excessive waste (rock, soil etc…) and the possibility of heavy metals or toxins leeching into the water table are ever-present factors.

write a fictional short story about an Irish immigrant working on building the Erie canal
plz write a short story
Answer:
On July 4, 1817, a shovel plunged into the soil in Rome, NY, thereby beginning one of the most significant turning points in American history. On that day, the Erie Canal began and set in motion the new nation's future of transportation, trade, and technology. To celebrate the 200th anniversary of this historic moment, museums, local governments, schools, and civic organizations all over New York are hosting events and creating special projects. The Irish and The Erie live program and CD is Craobh Dugan's contribution.
Having lived his whole life near the Erie Canal, Craobh Dugan's lead fiddler and creative director Mike Hoke was inspired to look into the history of our Irish ancestors' contribution to the digging of "Clinton's Ditch". He knew that thousands of Irish immigrants had spent long hard days digging through the rough wilderness, facing perils like malaria and cholera, and he wanted to make sure the 200th anniversary commemorations didn't leave them out.
After many hours spent at the Jervis Library, Mike wrote the script for The Irish and The Erie live performance filling it with stories and humor. Then he blended in traditional Irish tunes and songs and even added some new lyrics about the Erie Canal. Craobh Dugan mandolin and banjo player Bill Fahy contributed an original Erie Canal song too.

Answer:
My favorite poem is Harry Behn’s “Trees Are the Kindest Things I Know.” In the poem, the poet talks about how trees never harm anyone—they simply grow. They also provide shade for animals and nesting places for birds. I feel like the poet is trying to show how natural elements, such as trees, are important, and we must treasure them.

What issue did the Missouri Compromise of 1820, the Compromise of
1850, and the Kansas-Nebraska Act all concern?
Answer:
The compromise also included a more stringent Fugitive Slave Law and banned the slave trade in Washington, D.C. The issue of slavery in the territories would be re-opened by the Kansas–Nebraska Act, but many historians argue that the Compromise of 1850 played a major role in postponing the American Civil War

1. Escriba 4 diferencias de cada uno de los contratos de OBRA DE LABOR y contrato CIVIL O POR PRESTACION DE SERVICIOS.
La respuesta correcta para esta pregunta abierta es la siguiente.
Aunque no se anexan opciones o incisos para responder a la pregunta, podemos comentar lo siguiente. Tampoco especificas a qué país te refieres, porque en los países Latinoamericanos los términos son similares, aunque cada uno tiene sus diferencias.
Por lo anterior, y sin conocer el país en donde vives, ,podemos comentarte lo siguiente por medio de conceptos generales.
Las diferencias entre los contratos de obra de labor o contrato de trabajo formal, comparado con el contrato por prestación de servicios, son las siguientes.
Cuando hablamos del contratos de obra de labor o contrato de trabajo formal, se trata de la contratación que realiza la empresa contemplando todos los derechos y obligaciones que marca la ley en materia de trabajo.
Aquí, el empleado tiene que cumplir un trabajo en específico con una serie de características de acuerdo a la función y el puesto por el que haya sido contratado. El empleado debe cumplir un horario específico y cumplir con objetivos claros dentro de la empresa.
La empresa por su parte, está obligada a otorgarle al empleado las prestaciones básicas que marca la ley, como pueden ser el pago puntual de su salario por quincena o por mes, tener un fondo de pensiones vigente, estar inscrito en el sistema de seguridad social y hospitalaria que marca la legislación vigente, días de vacaciones, entre otras, según cada país.
Ahora, con respecto a al contrato prestación de servicios, el empleado no está contratado como parte de la empresa. Es decir, no es parte de la nómina oficial, y por esa razón, no recibe los servicios anteriormente mencionados en el caso del empleado formal.
El trabajador es contratado para trabajar de manera autónoma, sólo por la prestaciones de los servicios acreditados. Al trabajador se le contrata para que preste sus servicios de manera temporal, y cuando termina, sencillamente deja de trabajar sin ninguna obligación laboral por parte de la empresa.
El dinero que recibe de la empresa por la prestación de sus servicios no se llama salario, sino honorario por servicios.

explain the causes of the "great bull market" and the 1929 stock market crash
The correct answer to this question is the following.
Although there are no options attached we can say the following.
The "great bull market" is an economic term that refers to a situation lived in the market or a specific condition of the market in which prices are rising. That was the case of the US stock market before its crash on October 29, 1929. This crash represented the beginning of the Great Depression.
The main causes of the United States Great Depression were the following.
During the 1920s, the American people were living a period of economic prosperity known as the "Roaring 1920s." During this period, people buy all kinds of things, needed or not. They bought houses, cars, electro domestics, and more. However, most of these purchases were made on credit, generating a big debt. Another cause was the overproduction of goods. Then, the inaction on the part of the federal government to prevent or regulate these conditions.
The major cause that detonated the Great Depression was the United States Stock market crash of October 29, 1929. After this crash millions of Americans lost their jobs, banks declared bankruptcy, and thousands of companies broke.
