Synopsis:
Personally, I think the both Neil Young and
Bertha Wilson made great contributions to
Canada in the past in different ways to make
them known. Neil made most of his great
contributions within the music industry and
Bertha made most of hers within Canadas
Laws. In this case, comparing the two of them
is like comparing an apple to an orange,
which doesnt make any sense, I would like
make a remark that they are both great
Canadians that contributed immensely in
their own profession and passion. Although,
based on the survey we have conducted in our
classroom two weeks ago suggested the
success was determined by following facts
;Wealth, Influence, Fame, Service and
Happiness, Neil Young was successfully the
greater Canadian out of the two.
