For the past few days I have been working on a timeline about Immigration in Canada in the 1900's. I hope you enjoy it!

7,000,000,000
Recently the seven billionth person was born. Many people believe this is a bad thing, and now i want to share my thoughts about it. I find it funny how the thing that is making overpopulation possible is our better and better resources. Better medicines and better agriculture are some of the biggest reasons some of us are still on this planet. Also, did you know that a seven billionth person could of been born, someone died, then a new seven billionth person was born.
Having so many people alive is not good, but it is not bad either. We have more of in my opinion best resources in the world, people. It's hard to say that overpopulation is a problem, because people would have to die in order to reduce it, and we can't do that. We can't do that because every person is a person, a person with abilities and potential. If you think we should kill people to reduce the population, then go away because I don't want you reading this, evil person.
In the past two hundred years, the world population has spiked, but I believe that it will stop. I think this for a few reasons. First, the UN says so, and unless the UN is secretly trying to ruin the world, I'd say their right. Second, a professor named Hans Rosling said in a video that in a nutshell, we will have a steady population growth between nine and ten billion people. I believe that we have many challenges to face in the future about overpopulation, but we also have many resources to face them with.
Here is the video about Hans Rosling:

What I want to do with my blog
Hi, my name is Matthew and this is my blog. There are a few things I want to do with it. First, is learn. To be a good blogger you have to know a lot about what you're writing about, and since I am not a genius, I don't know everything. I want to learn about the world so I can be a better person.
Next, I want to communicate. I want to use different tools to connect with my audience; if it's making a youtube video, making a podcast or by even meeting with my readers in the real world! I want to write regular blog posts too, but using multi-media is very interesting to me!
Also, I would like to think. I don't want to copy and paste information from wikipedia. I would like to think about what I write about and say what I feel about things. I want my audience to think too. I want them to think about what I say and then tell me what they feel about the stuff that I say.
I want to connect with others. I want to read and comment on other blogs and have others comment on mine. I think it would be cool to have people respond to my blogs and say what they think, if they're agreeing or disagreeing with my thoughts. The whole point of my blog is to share my thoughts with the world, if it's on politics the latest terrorist attack. I want people to know how I think and I want to know how other people think too.
Lastly, I want to change the world. I want to change the rules, debate, teach others and make the world a better place with what I write. I want people to follow me and share what I say with their friends. I want people to be proud to read my blog because I'm going to be proud of what I write.

If It Were My Home
I have decided to make a presintation on which country is the best. I chose 10 countries to participate and I had five criteria on how to decide. I hope you enjoy it!
