    However, prior to the BHP Billiton bid for PotashCorp, Ottawa had blocked just one of over 1,600 foreign acquisitions since the adoption of the Act in 1985. Some of the apparent underlying reasons for withholding approval for the deal had to do with the anticipated revenues from potash in an environment of high commodity prices a dynamic that underlies other resource nationalist policies. The decision to block the BHP bid also appears to relate to populist resource nationalist rhetoric. Saskatchewan’s centre-right premier, Brad Wall, was the most vocal and determined opponent of the transaction, arguing that increasing food security concerns had made potash a vital resource, and argued that control over this ‘strategic asset’ was crucial for Canada. In terms of claiming larger…

    As the leader of the Progressive Conservative Party of Canada, he developed a close relationship with U.S President Ronald Regan; both men shared a similar conservative philosophy. As Canada’s Prime Minister, Mulroney sought closer ties with the United States, on issues such as trade policies and North American Aerospace Defence Command system (NORAD). During the Mulroney era, Canada saw drastic changes in economy and foreign policies; at the same time Canada gained closer ties with the United States during his time in office. Some of his notable actions during his time in office include the involvement of Canada in the SDI and NORAD during the Cold War; furthermore, Mulroney made Canada part of the Free Trade Agreement with the United States. It is evident that some of Brian Mulroney’s decisions during his time as Prime Minister are somewhat controversial; however, there is no denial that Mulroney had brought Canada to a closer cooperation with the United States, “becoming the first Prime Minister of Canada who did not see United States as a threat to Canadian nationhood.”2…

    The reason I chose Trump for my MLP project is because my family talks a lot about Trump and the things he is trying to do, that inspired me to write and show people why Trump is causing global conflict because of all of the horrible things he wants to do. The reason why this matters to me, you and Canada is because he now has the power to affect us by one stopping trade between our countries, he could also declare war on our country for whatever reason and start to bomb our cities, homes, and oil plants which our country needs, another thing he could do is the attack another country that is not our…

    With the United States being Canada’s only neighbor, comparisons and similarities have been made regarding all forms of the two nations for many years. Seymour Martin Lipset tries to explain the difference between Canada and the United States in the 1980s through different aspects, such as religion, economy, culture and politics. However, it is a very difficult task to break down the two country’s similarities and differences through only a few pages. While I believe that Lipset’s arguments on the similarities and differences between Canada and the United States may have been effective in the 1980’s, I do not believe that the same arguments would hold the same weight today as they did back then. Factors have changed within both of the two nations…

    The North American Free Trade Agreement, also known as “NAFTA” took effect January 1, 1994. It is a trade agreement between the three countries of North America, which are The United States, Canada, and Mexico. The Canadian Prime Minister, Brian Mulroney, the Mexican President, Carlos Salinas de Gortari, and former United States President George H. Bush organized the agreement. The relationship between the countries were already on good terms, especially between the two northern countries US and Canada which five years before NAFTA had gone into effect by the agreement that was signed of Free Trade Agreement that eliminated all tariffs between the two countries. It was only time before a more integrated agreement was put into effect for all of North America. The geographic location and the previously established trade of goods and services made NAFTA a logical decision welcoming Mexico into the bargain.…

    The summit series improved Canadian relationships with Russia because prime minster Turedeau and Aleksei Kosygin thought that they could make ties if the reopened international hockey. This was true as Canada and Russia would again play each other again 2 years later in the 1974 summit series. The Canadian economy needed the United States because they became dependant on the United States for smooth trade flow. In 1971 the United States introduced the Nixon shock which made a 10%taruff on all imports. The Canadian government went into a panic. This is when prime minster Trudeau introduced the “third option”. This was a proposal that reduced trade and cultural relations between Canada and the United States. He thought it would be good to downgrade the importance of Canada and United States relationship. In 1972 speech president Nixon said that the special relationship between Canada and the united states are dead.(Nixon, January 21st,2011) Canada also didn’t want to rely on the Americans anymore because the American were not having success in recent years. They also wanted to make ties with other countries in the word one being Russia.…

    2. I think Sarah Vowell was expecting her readers not to be so surprised that Americans don’t really think about Canada at all. Canada isn’t really considered a threat to America because it’s such a peaceful and harmless country. Sara vowell even mentions how Canada gained independence through polite meetings with Britain. Other countries would just go to war to gain their independence. If Canadians could gain their independence just for being nice and cooperative, what is there to worry about? People don’t really take Canada seriously anyway. Canada is like that one neighbor that never leaves the house, but is always happy and welcoming when people go to visit. So when an American says they don’t think about Canada at all, they mean it.…

    Lester B Pearson

    To begin, Lester B. Pearson helped make Canada. He made it to what it is to this day, he is the Prime Minister “who gave Canada the identity that we have today” (thegauntlet.ca). One of the things he did was give Canada its flag. Pearson went to the House of Commons and informed them that the Canadian government wanted to adopt a new national flag and change it from the Union Jack. He made it a priority that Canada gets a new flag. Pearson fought long to get Canada a new flag, it was a very “heated debate over the issue, all through tactful negotiation and bargaining” (thegauntlet.ca). If he did not become Prime Minister there would have been a good chance that we would still have the Union Jack as our flag. Secondly, he created Canada’s Pension plan. This plan to help those who have retired; he made it so that all that are retired can get the money they deserve. In addition he also made the Auto Pact or otherwise called the Canada-United States Automotive Products Agreement. This is a very important trade agreement between the two countries. This agreement removed all tariffs on cars, trucks, buses, tires and all automotive parts. The auto pact is very important to Canadians and Americans as it is meant, “to secure the foundations for Canadian…

    NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement), was the agreement that Canada made with the United States and Mexico in 1994, which stated that they could trade goods amongst each other without tariffs (Nafta, 2012). This greatly contributed to Canada 's economy, as these countries traded with each other even more. Even if NAFTA was only present in Canada for 6 years of the twentieth century, these six years were affected by it, defining Canada to what it is today. NAFTA has created many job opportunities for Canada, gave Canadians a choice and variety of goods to choose from, and generated economic flow within Canada (Markville, 2011). Also generating economic flow was probably the main economical occurrence in the twentieth century, the rise and fall of the 1920s and 1930s, leading up to the Great Depression. The mid 1920s were very beneficial and good to most of Canada. After recovering from the economic hard times from after World War 1, parts of Canada saw economic good times (Markville, 2008). People in Canada could afford many things that they could not before, and also had much more time for leisure activities because of all the technological advances of the time (Ascension, 2012). Then in 1929, the New York Stock Market had crashed and had started the Great Depression (Ascension, 2012). The Great Depression was a huge tragedy leaving many people in poverty and in bad times and bad conditions. This event definitely helped shape Canada to what it is today, as Canadians now know how to deal with these types of situations. The rise and fall had also helped Canada become more autonomous because it had recovered, fallen, then dealt with its problems on its own, with minimal direct help from Britain. Later on, Canada had also shown its independence by declaring war on Germany (during WW2) 7 days after…

The Sub-prime Mortgage Crisis, which hit all of the world’s major economies in late 2008, was followed immediately by the European Sovereign Debt Crisis that again hit the global economy. Canada is an integrated part of the world economy and it actively trades with all the other major economies. Therefore, it was inevitably affected by the economy…
