As outlined in the course syllabus, as long as you meet the following requirements (and don't plagiarize), you will earn an A on this assignment. If you can't meet this requirement, we will meet to discuss and agree together what your individual mark will be instead for this assignment. If you go beyond these requirements and show an unusual level of leadership, then it is possible to earn an A+. - Each individual student needs to contribute at least 1,000 words of original content - Each individual student needs to contribute 8 peer-reviewed sources and 3 sources of grey literature (e.g. Statistics Canada info, websites, news sources, etc.)
