basic info on issue, opinion on issue, points on why/what you want Paragraph, paragraph, paragraph: one paragraph per point Conclusion: restating info, driving home your points 94 Calls to action (Body 1) They have existed and been available for a long time (point) Proof Explanation The calls to action make a tangible and significant difference to the indigenous communities, unlike the empty support Trudeau showed on the day The calls to action were created by indigenous people, so the actions taken would be the most beneficial for them; the calls to action weren’t made through assumptions but by actually asking indigenous communities what they wanted and need What are the calls to action? Why should he have been there (Body 2) He should have been there to experience the day and event more fully, and be more present with the indigenous communities to show support Could have had more meaningful and supportive conversations in person Could have met more people and heard more peoples perspectives and thoughts Why should he have apologized by taking action (Body 3) Apologizing without taking action to make up for what he did doesn’t help the indigenous people He could have heard peoples feedback and taken actions that people had asked him to do along with his apology to make up for it Since he put the day in place, he should follow up with it and make a difference instead of it becoming a PR stunt; especially after hearing the backlash from his actions originally, he should have known better and used his power to make a difference Conclusion This is what he did This is what he should have done and why “When the indigenous communities were finally given a day to raise awareness for their struggles, instead of actually making a difference Trudeau threw away his chance to work with them and make Canada a better place for everyone. Hopefully in the future, more will be done that will actually make a difference.”
