Décrire comment les relationw Anglo-Américaines ont affecté le development du Canada (1775-1914).

Analyser l’impact de l’immigration et l’établissement des Africains au Canada (1600 -1914)

Va sur le site web suivant: http://www.nationalgeographic.com/railroad/j1.html
Fais la simulation plusieurs fois en prenant différents décisions chaque fois pour que tu puisses bien comprendre les problèmes et risques pris par les esclaves et ceux qui les ont aidé à s’échapper.

Après avoir complète la simulation pense aux risques pris par ceux impliqués. Décide si tu aurais personnellement pris ces risques ou non pour aider les esclaves à s’échapper grâce au Chemin de fer clandestin.

Regarde et lis les 3 annonces d’esclave dans ce livret (Note: lis les "f" comme des "s"), et révise également les sources d’information incluses pour ton intérêt. Lis les sections 7 et 8 de l’Acte des Esclaves Fugitifs de 1850 sur le site web : http://www.usconstitution.net/fslave.html. Essais du mieux que tu peux de trouver les conséquences si quelqu’un était attrapé à aider les esclaves ou les bénifices de dénoncer les esclaves. Pense à comment ces lois auraient pu influencer tes décisions pour donner ou non de l’aide aux esclaves.

Lis plus à propos de 2 à 3 individus qui étaient impliqués avec le movement d’abolition. Quelques liens te sont présentés ci-dessous pour d’aider à commencer.
