...5.1 Situation Analysis This small-town distribution firm was created by James Brunswick, after his employment as a senior logistics officer of a larger-size freight company operating out of Chicago and distributing to seven states. He began this company with only his two college buddies in his grandmothers shed, and with a single loan from the bank, he was on his way to success. Once business began to increase, James decided to relocate to a bigger building, on the outside of the town. Brunswick Distribution implements resale strategies, to get products from manufacturer to retailers on time and efficiently. Simply put, they are classified as single distributors. While BDI is a rather diminutive distribution firm, their customer base spans from all over their local environment. With a focus on quality and efficiency, in and around the tiny town of Moline; however, it still isn’t as little as the shed they began BDI in, for their first nine months of service. (Even without a strategic game plan, they were dedicated to making the company work, and would do whatever it took to ensure that it did.) After the first relocation, Brunswick decided on an additional step, which was a milestone, to say the least. He signed a contract with Kitchen-Aid. Located not far, just 35 miles outside Moline and specializing in high-end kitchen appliances, they signed the agreement in 1992. By the end of 2000, BDI had almost doubled in the area of 10,000 square foot building capacity...

...The division of Nova Scotia to create the province of New Brunswick in 1784 set forth a wave of migrating Loyalists to settle this new province. Many of them settled on the ruins of abandoned Acadian villages where many Acadians had settled their families. After the destruction of the “Pointe-Saint-Anne” village in the winter of 1759 by Lieutenant Moses Hazen and a group of rangers, where he was only able to capture three of its families, many of the Acadians were able to flee the village. Some of these Acadians fled west and settled near the Malecite village of Ekoupahag. Afterwards, many other Acadians started to settle nearby, and some settled at what became French Village. One of the pioneers of the French Village was Jacques Daniel Godin who was the grandchild of Gabriel Godin who was one of the founders of the Acadian village of “Pointe-Saint-Anne”.1 The French Village was situated about seventeen kilometres from what became the City of Fredericton, and is now part of Kingsclear.2 There are stills ruins of what seems to be an old church that burned to the ground, and also an old cemetery where we can find Acadian tombstones mixed with those of the Loyalists’.3 1.

If you are not prepared, you are unlucky.” —Jane Savoie, U.S. Olympic Equestrian Athlete AtlanticRider.com has established itself as the most popular website for horse enthusiasts in Atlantic Canada. In the first 10 days of 2004, the Riders’ Forum alone hosted more than 85 000 page views by its 1129 registered members and other visitors (considered “lurkers” because they visit, but don’t post). This is an amazing accomplishment for a site with a target market of approximately 3851 participants who ride and drive about 18 000 horses. The present challenge for the CEO of AtlanticRider.com is to overhaul the site in a way that meets current challenges and ensures future success (see Exhibit 6-1). The Initial Business Model AtlanticRider.com is a web portal serving horse enthusiasts in Atlantic Canada and beyond (see Exhibit 6-2). The site was launched in October 1999 after several months of planning and development. With a newly acquired MBA (in electronic commerce and international business) and 20 years of horse-industry experience, the founder and CEO, Diana Swain, recognized the need for an Atlantic Canadian horse site. She expected it to be well received, based on the rapid growth of the World Wide Web and the striking similarities in demographics of internet...

...As one of the earliest settlement areas in North America, the Maritime region has been an emblem of heritage roots throughout the course of Canadian history. Often referred to as a symbol of regional sovereignty, historians have labelled the Maritimes as a pioneer of the earliest commerce and trade activities. It is for this very reason that many have alluded to the Golden Ages of the Maritimes, a period marked by regional economic growth. With a pre-existing maturity in the fishing, logging, farming, and shipping industries, the technological improvements brought by industrialization at the turn of the 19th century led to the boom of industrial bases for steel and coal markets. This enabled the three provinces to capitulate their geographical advantage since the area was abundant in coal deposits, and lead to one of the wealthiest expansions in Maritime history. As Acheson famously points out, the local attitude was that despite transportation problems, it would still become the industrial centre of Canada because only it had commercially viable iron and coal deposits, and only it could control Montreal fuel resources. Why then, did the end of an era dominated by manufacturing lead to an economic stagnation that left a permanent imprint over the course of the century? Over the years, historians and economists alike have deemed a variety of factors as accountable for the general economic backwardness that prevailed. While some of these academic research pose contradictions amongst...

...The makers of Louisiana Hot Sauce Market it as one of the first Cajun food products to become commercially available. The sauce was first made and sold in 1928 by Bruce Foods, about five years after Baumer Foods (another Louisiana-based company) began producing Crystal Hot Sauce. Since then, Louisiana Hot Sauce has grown to become one of the iconic American hot sauces and is currently available in a large number of grocery stores. In order to get a better understanding of what has made this hot sauce popular for so long, let us take a look at what goes into it. The Ingredients in Louisiana Hot Sauce Aged Peppers Vinegar Salt The Pepper in Louisiana Hot Sauce According to the Wikipedia page for Louisiana Hot Sauce, the peppers used are long cayenne peppers. The About page on the sauce's website states that the peppers are combined with vinegar and salt and then fermented. The benefits of fermentation include a more complex flavor in addition to a reduction in the amount of vinegar needed to acidify the sauce. The Scoville rating of long cayenne peppers is in the 30,000 to 50,000 Scoville Heat Unit range, which means that it is 10 times hotter than a jalapeno. The Scoville rating of Louisiana Hot Sauce is 450, making it one of the milder hot sauces. Note that the 450 score is the same as that of another popular mild hot sauce: Frank's RedHot Cayenne Pepper Sauce. The reduction in heat is thought to be more the result of dilution with vinegar rather than the fermentation...

...Two Solitudes is far from being a great work of fiction--it can be hokey, preachy, heavy-handed, trite, and dated--but it is both an entertaining human story and a knowing political novel, only slightly marred by MacLennan's over-idealistic nationalism. The Canada that MacLennan presents, a country in which a citizen is either French-Canadian or English-Canadian (or a rare hybrid) never really existed, but the political climate prompted by this illusion is still with us. MacLennan's novel is one of the most sympathetic (and readable) literary chronicles of the tensions and misunderstandings that gave birth to modern Quebec. --Jack Illingworth “Two solitudes”, which was written by Hugh McLennan at 1945, was his most famous novel. The Author, Hugh MacLennan was born in Glace Bay, Nova Scotia, 1907. There are about seven novels, travel books and uncountable essays that mediate between the European cultural heritage and American vigor and idealism. “Among his many honors, he won five Governor Generals Awards.” And finally, Hugh MacLennan died in Montreal in 1990. It was a literary allegory for English and French Canadian from 1917 to 1939. The author divided this novel into 4 parts. “It is set during World War I, and a cast of “archetype” characters relay the story, being representations of French Canadians or Catholics or Businessman during this time period.” The novel’s plot was focus on the life of the fictional character named Paul Tallard, who is struggling between the...

...Mini Assignment 1 – McCain Foods Limited 1. If you were in charge of the Asian operations for McCain, how would you recommend the company overcome the challenges in the Chinese market? If I were in charge of Asian operations for McCain, I would take an advertising approach to overcome challenges in the Chinese market. The most effective way is to have famous figures/celebrities as the face of McCain. This method has been proven successful in other advertising campaigns, such as Yao Ming in the anti-shark fin consumption campaign and Jay Chou/Kobe Bryant in Sprite commercials. In both cases, the awareness of both campaigns was widespread and well known. In the shark fin case, the appearance of NBA legend Yao Ming has led to more awareness of the dwindling shark population. Likewise, when Sprite faced the likes of singer sensation Jay Chou and NBA star Kobe Bryant, the popularity of Sprite increased. It can thus be concluded that the use of celebrities or famous figures will lead to popularity in a product. As well, the price of McCain products will have to initially be very low, as a conservative society will not want to spend a lot of money on an unknown item. 2. Drawing from Hofstede’s work on global cultures, what challenges might Canadian managers at McCain face when interacting with their Chinese business colleagues? Hofstede’s works on global cultures are masculinity-femininity, uncertainty avoidance, individualism-collectivism, and power distance. The Canadian...

...THE DESTRUCTION OF ACADIA Varun Kalra Tuesday, May 22nd, 2018 Between 1755 and 1763, as many as 10,000 Acadians were forcibly deported from their colonies in the Canadian Maritime Provinces and Quebec by British soldiers. After the Treaty Of Utrecht was signed, the British got the land that the Acadians had settled on. These poor people were to be deported because the British Council thought they were a “threat” to the appropriation of the land, as well as wanted the rich land for themselves. The Acadians had a good relationship with the Mi'kmaq, but the Mi’kmaq did not have a good relationship with the British. The British Council demanded the Acadians to say the Oath Of Allegiance. However, the Acadians wished to remain neutral and wanted to not take any side when the British and French would fight. But, when the British attacked Fort Beausejour, Acadians were found within the walls of the fort. The Acadians protested that they were forced to fight against their will. The British claimed that this was a betrayal of the neutrality, and the Acadians were forced to take the Oath Of Allegiance. “Anyone who would not take the oath was a “rebel” claimed Charles Lawrence (British Army General During The Expulsion Of The Acadians). Acadians refused, and the British said they will be expelled from their land. Charles Lawrence...

...Quebec is the most distinct province in Canada that is very proud of their cultural heritage and wants to protect its French language and way of life. Quebec has always had a very strong sense of nationalism and wants to preserve and maintain their cultural identity. Many Quebeckers believe the best way to protect their cultural identity and language is to separate from Canada and become their own nation. Quebec’s separatism has been an ongoing topic and debate that many people believe could result in dire consequences. Not only could there be great consequences for Quebec but Quebec’s separation would also largely affect Canada and The United States. Two very predominant politicians, Bill Clinton and Pierre Trudeau, have even warned and advised against Quebec separating from Canada. Both Trudeau and Clinton believe that Canada functions better as a united Canada. Quebec’s separation would have a direct impact on many cultural, economic, and foreign relation issues. Quebec is very proud of their cultural heritage and they want to make sure that their unique culture is recognized and appreciated. Quebeckers feel like their culture is not receiving enough appreciation amongst other Canadians. They also feel as if the English-speaking people are trying to destroy their culture (Canada 2015). Although Quebec is trying to take preventative action to keep that from happening, they also are putting their culture at risks in other ways. If Quebec were to separate from Canada they would...
