 Economic history of Canada - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The earliest European settlements in Canada were to take advantage of the fisheries of the East Coast, especially the Grand Banks off Newfoundland.
The first Prime Minister of the new nation was John A. Macdonald, and he outlined what would be Canada's economic program for decades.
Once referred to as a fiscal basket-case, Canada has become a model of pecuniary stability as the government has posted surpluses for many years.

 EH.Net Encyclopedia: Japan, Industrialization and Economic Growth
Indeed Western Europe, Canada, Australia and the United States all attained high levels of income per capita by shifting from agrarian-based production to manufacturing and technologically sophisticated service sector activity.
The United States was becoming a potential contender to the United Kingdom as the backer of a gold standard regime but its long history of high tariffs and isolationism deterred it from taking over leadership in promoting global trade openness.
The relative decline of the United Kingdom as an economic power doomed a gold standard regime tied to the British pound.

 Auto Pact - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Because of tariffs only three percent of vehicles sold in Canada were made in the United States, but most of the parts were manufactured in the U.S. and overall Canada was in a large trade deficit with the States in the automobile sector.
The agreement also prevents Canada from pursuing free trade in automobiles with other nations, such as Japan.
The trade deficit has turned into a trade surplus worth billions of dollars annually to Canada.

 Economic History and Regional Economic Policy of Canada
Regional economic development policy in Canada generally has its origins in the attempt to improve the standard of living in the maritime provinces.
Another arm of Canada's regional development policy was the Atlantic Development Board which soon received a fund of $186 million to administer.
The economist Benjamin Higgins stated that "perhaps never in the history of economic thought has so much government activity taken place and so much money been invested on the foundation of so confused a concept as the growth pole became in the late 1960's and early 1970's.

 CANADA - Information Pages dealing with our history
The government of the Canadas under the Act of Union was running into difficulties because Canada West by this time had increased in population faster than Canada East.
The period between the wars brought the culmination of Canada's growth to independent nationhood within the British Commonwealth.
In October 1987 Canada and the United States reached agreement on a trade pact to eliminate all bilateral tariffs over a ten-year period beginning Jan. 1, 1989.

 War and Economic History
Although these war-related innovations had positive economic effects, it is unclear whether the same money spent in civilian sectors might have produced even greater innovation.
Despite its pump-priming potential in specific circumstances, as during the 1930s, military spending generally acts to slow economic growth, since it diverts capital and labor from more productive investment (such as in roads, schools, or basic research).
However, they may have some predictive value to the extent they clarify the historical relationships between war and military spending on the one hand, and inflation and economic growth on the other.
