American election and Donald Trump
These days, the majority of the informations that was coming out from the news was about the American election even if I am living in Canada. Maybe, this is because of the controversial dispute between Donald Trump and the Pope. I think its quite interesting to see one of the participants running for presidency of the United States, one of the biggest powerful countries in the world if it is not the biggest to arguing the Pope. Personally, I think it just shows how Trump does not focus on the right things he should take care first to win the elections like finding solid ideas contributing to the improvement of quality of life of every American no matter their nationality whether to only make decisions for people who are afraid of changes, racist or the richest. I don't think is wrong on every aspect. For example, I think his ideas about improving education is not that bad.
Maybe, it is because I am living Quebec in Canada that I think this way. In quebec, education and health care are practically free because every citizen has to pay around 40% to 50% in tax of their total revenu. For what I heard about Bernie Sanders, I think he wants America to become much more a socialist country as Quebec. I think it is a good think in general and maybe, that is why the majority of Bernie Sanders's supporters are young people between 19 to 29. They don't want to have to pay for life long their scholarship and they want a more equal revenu distribution.

Used water
One week ago, the mayer of Montreal city and his advisers decided to pour a large amount of used water (8 billions of used water exactly) right into the Saint-Laurent river because they needed to fix something in a water treatment machine from Montreal's water treatment factory.
These news reported have been discussing a lot for the past three weeks all over the world by different protecting environment organization. A lot of people was disagree with the mayer and the first complaint which came out from this, was that was not very good for the environment! Scientists who were assigned to assessing the quality of water during the dumping said that it was not dangerous for the health of fishes and people around the river.
Despite this fact, citizens were thoroughly disagree with the idea that we still need in 2015 to make this kind of action badly harmful for the environment. I totally agree with people who were disagreed because I think we can not blind ourself anymore about all topics around the health of our environment. Things will have to change sooner than later!
Are you agree?

New way to learn English
Recently, I have been using an incredible mobile app on my phone called Memrise. It is an app which can help you in memorizing of words in the language that you are learning. How does it work? It is quite simple, every day, when I feel the need to learn new words I just have to open the app and learn new words. When the app understands that maybe, I am going to be able to remember these words recently learned, It is going to stop me asking the word for a few days. But after a few days, It will ask me if I am able to remember these words that I have learned, if I do, it will take longer the next time I am going to be interrogated on those words. Nice app, is not it!

Subway
I like taking the subway as a transport mean because it is useful and quick. You don't have to possess a car so you can get by only the subway and sometimes, the bus as well. Do I think that the subway could suit to everyone? I do not think so because you often have to stand up for minutes next to unknown people and I know that is not everybody who is comfortable with it. You have to wait sometimes a long time before getting on the subway because of the common subway's breakdown that can happen at any time. So, I do not think for impatient people. At the end of the day, no matter who you are, I think that the most effective way to move is with the subway!

The color run
Yesterday night, I participated at an event called "The color run". Over this event, we have run a 5 kilometers run along with friends. What is so special about this event is that when we were running, we had to go through some powder stations. In each of theses stations, there was a few volunteers who were ready to throw some colorful powder on every runner. The powder was used for trying to make runners shined all night long. It was amazing because everybody was shining, happy and nobody was complaining about the fact that they were dirty because of the powder on their t-shirt. Whether you wanted to run or only walk, this event was good to gather up people.

Grammar
I was wondering why sometimes we have to use the ing form rather than the infinitive form. For instance,
1- I am looking forward to meeting you next weekend!
2- I am looking forward to meet you next weekend!
I know that the verb "To meet" of the first sentence has to be in ing form because it is a gerund and because it is grammatically correct but, why is it like that, is there a different meaning if I would be using the verb "to meet" without the ing form in this context?
Thank you for your help!

Bilingualism
I would like to speak a little bit on an article that I recently read. This article was about a research which wanted to find out whether if children who have been raised in a bilingual environment got stronger cognitive connections in their brain during their childhood than children who did not. The findings showed that bilingual children had stronger connections and despite this fact, having stronger connections could protect them in a more effective way against dementia and Alzheimer. So, the article was pretty interesting and it just showed me how it can be important to learn a new language either for business or health purposes.
