Contemporary social issue
Analyze a contemporary social issue and discuss its sociocultural impact. For instance,
you could choose one of the following (many others are possible): the expensive real
estate market in Canada, the #MeToo movement, climate change in one locale, U.S.-
China relations, the building of pipelines in British Columbia, Indigenous sovereignty,
etc. Remember that your thesis must contain an argument. Essays which simply
describe events and/or issues do not meet assignment criteria
