Instructions
1. Choose one topic from the list below and write an essay of approximately
1000 to 1200 words (about four double-spaced typed pages). Expect that if
your essay goes over the length requirement, your essay could be returned
to you for revision.
2. Begin your research. You might start with a general Google search and
then a Google Scholar search.
3. Find two to four reputable secondary sources and review them carefully.
At least one source should be from a peer-reviewed journal article.
4. Develop a straightforward thesis that is sufficiently limited in scope
(meaning something you can do justice to in a short essay).
5. Include all of the following:
a. An introduction that includes an interesting lead-in and an
explanation/summary of what the issue is. (As necessary, convince your
audience that the problem or issue exists and that it matters to others—or
should.) Then, still in the introduction, briefly summarize EACH side of
the issue, and finally, add a thesis/essay map that takes a stance and
clarifies the purpose of your discussion, without any kind of announcement.
You practiced this skill in your second session of the discussion forum, so
review your previous work and any suggestions your tutor might have made.
b. Body paragraphs that develop your viewpoint. The more thorough and
detailed this section, the better. Don’t leave any stone unturned. Use
specific, logical examples and integrated paraphrases, summaries, and
quotations from your research.
c. Opposing arguments/rebuttal.
d. A conclusion that does not repeat your thesis. Instead, write a
suggestive conclusion in which you offer implications for the reader’s
further consideration. Remember that this is your final opportunity to
impress your reader.
6. Make use of at least two (and no more than four) secondary sources
within your essay by adding quotations and paraphrases.

2. Are existing policies in Alberta regarding pet ownership fair and
reasonable? Choose one policy on which to focus your argument.

4. Do the economic benefits of the Alberta tar sands outweigh the
environmental costs?
5. Should teachers be allowed to give students failing grades, or should
schools’ no-fail policies be upheld?
6. Should Canadian judges be elected or appointed?
7. Facebook’s initial public offering was made at $28/share. In early
trading, it traded as high as $41 and fell as low as $26. Was the IPO a
failure?
8. Should Canadian health-care workers (such as nurses) be able to refuse
to work with certain patients on the basis of “conscience rights”?
9. Should Canada’s health care system move towards greater privatization?
10. In Canada, should a member of a religious group have the right to
refuse a blood transfusion on behalf of his or her child?

12. A Canadian prime minister’s annual salary is set by legislation at
$315,462. In contrast, the president and CEO of RBC received over $10
million last year. Is the Canadian prime minister adequately paid?
13. Was the Occupy movement an effective means of protest?
14. The Government of Alberta is currently suing cigarette makers to recoup
public health costs related to problems associated with smoking. Should
cigarette companies be required to compensate provincial governments for
health care costs associated with treating smokers’ diseases?
15. During the Iraq War, only “embedded” journalists were permitted to
cover news from the war zone. Does being embedded compromise a journalist’s
objectivity, credibility, and integrity?

22. Do Western nations have an obligation to intervene in other nations’
genocidal wars (Rwanda, for example)?
23. Should banks be allowed to engage in proprietary trading (i.e. trading
for their own gain or loss, and not simply as a middleman)?
24. Should the Government of Alberta offer tax credits or other incentives
for “health-promoting” behaviours?
25. Read “Behind the Formaldehyde Curtain,” by Jessica Mitford. Defend or
oppose the procedures of embalming and restorative work on the deceased in

period of time in some branch of the military service?
27. Should the government subsidize our Olympic teams?
28. Should donors or their families be compensated for organ donations?
29. Recent elections have been characterized by small turnouts of eligible

vote. Should such a policy be adopted in Canada?
30. Is torture ever acceptable?
31. Are nurse practitioners a benefit or a potential liability?
32. Considering two markedly different approaches to training a dog (or a
