Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to subsidize it:
The Honourable Shelly Glover, Minister of Canadian Heritage and Official Languages, today announced funding of $330,000 over three years under the Youth Take Charge program for the Young Citizens project.
The Young Citizens project provides 150 young Canadians aged 10 to 16 with the opportunity to record a journalistic-style video based on a presentation done for the Heritage Fairs program. The videos are then shared online in a national contest in which all Canadians are invited to vote for their favourites.
I'm sure all the cool kids will love it.
Why not just award them all with Journalism degrees. Journalism quality wouldn't suffer. Knowledge and critical thinking just gets in the way of a good pc narrative... oops, I mean story.
