Visit http://www.statcan.ca and use the search function to look up any topic of interest to you, for example, divorce rates or poverty rates. The search will yield a list of articles, some of which contain charts and graphs. You can save the visuals and insert them in a word-processed document. To do this simple function, follow the instructions in the Help section of your word processing software.

Submit a 1 to 2 page memo to your instructor with a brief summary of the article you have chosen and include at least one chart or graph. Of course, it is essential to document the source of the information and the image.
