Transcript: Toxic Waste Dump Construction Eunice Tang CHV20-34/35 July 12 2019 Leadership Styles Leadership Styles When forming a committee to help and find a solution for our situation I will be a democratic leader. This means that I will include, listen, and respect other's ideas. I do not believe that I could come up will all the solutions myself and having everyone pitch in is what gives a sense of community. I am Spongebob Who am I Who I am Spongebob is hard working, optimistic, and loyal. These are 3 important things that are needed to be a leader. If the leader isn't working hard, no one will want to work hard either. Optimism is what keeps people going. When it is very gloomy and there's a lot of negativity, no one will want to do anything. Loyalty is so that the citizens can trust him and trust that he won't betray his citizens. Characteristics Characteristics Characteristics that make me suitable to be a leader Evolution of Democracy Evolution of Democracy "Recalling the historic importance of the ending of the division of the European continent and the need to create firm bases for the construction of the future Europe. " -European Member. This is because in the quote it states how it is inefficient and bad for the future to do further construction projects the way that they are doing it. This is the same for the toxic waste dump because by doing that it is not helping the future of that area of land. Future generations that live there will get sick, and all the land where the dump is, is becoming less healthy. Why would spongebob use this quote? More Information Democratic Ideals Including Democratic Ideals to Government Mr. Bob Construction 1.

Definition of Democracy Broadening the Definition of Democracy Three characteristics of democracies are participation, equality, and a sense of responsibility for others. Participation will further the success of our political cause because when everyone is helping and getting involved, things can get done faster and more ideas are brought to the table which usually results in having better ideas and making better decisions. Participation Participation Equality will also further our success because people feel that they are helpful and that they matter. When it is an authoritarian leader and he/she is the only one coming up with ideas, making choices, and telling people what to do. The citizens will not be as happy and they will not work as hard to help. Where a leader that believes in equality will bring people together to find the best solution. Equality Equality A sense of responsibility for others can further the success of our political cause because when people are helping out and they see that their ideas are being contributed and respected, they will be more willing to work and they will work harder with more enthusiasm. A Sense of Responsibility for Others Responsibility Levels of Government Canada's Political Structure and Levels of Government I think the best level of government to talk to about this situation is the municipal government. This is because the municipal government is responsible for the garbage collection and the disposal services. This includes things like the disposal of toxic waste. Passage of laws Environmental Laws in Canada "All provinces have now passed legislation on water pollution and air pollution." ( Robert T. Franson, Elaine. L. Hughes, 2012). Spongebob could use this quote in the laws because it states that there are laws against air pollution and water pollution and the toxic waste dump is causing both.

Political Parties Political Parties Conservative "Canadians must be able to trust that government will engage in appropriate regulatory oversight"(Liberal, 2015) In a way this shows how they want the citizens to trust them and even when they are doing bad things like putting toxic waste dumps near people's homes he wants citizens to trust that it is the better and right thing to do. Liberal Liberal "Enhanced waste-water infrastructure in small communities to reduce water pollution" This could mean
