Canadian American Relations 100
Operations such as factories and offices that
are located in Canada but are controlled by
Americans or overseas companies.
3
Canadian American Relations 200
This brought some improvements, in Calgary the
number of arrests for drunkenness dropped 93.
Alcohol was still available to the wealthy though
and by 1920 the provincial governments realized
that it wasnt working. After a series of votes
the government adopted government-controlled
liquor outlets and alcohol was no longer banned.
4
Canadian American Relations 300
In 1936 this French-Canadian party was formed by
Maurice Duplessis, a former Conservative. He
claimed that the provinces economic and social
problems were due to the English (often American)
minority in Quebec that controlled the economy.
5
Canadian American Relations 400
  • In this plan, based upon American President
    Roosevelts model, Bennett promised many things
    if he was re-elected
  • health and unemployment insurance
  • a maximum work week
  • financial assistance to farmers so they could
    stay on their farms
  • the creation of an Economic Council of Canada
    that would advise the government on economic
    matters

6
Canadian American Relations 500
This was US President Woodrow Wilsons idea. He
drew up a Fourteen Point plan at the end of WWI
that had long-term ideals for peace. The
organization was created in the Treaty of
Versailles to keep peace and make the quality of
life better for everyone.
7
Canadian British Relations 100
Since this incident no Governor General has ever
acted against the elected prime ministers wishes
again.
8
Canadian British Relations 200
This act formally changed the British Empire into
the British Commonwealth of Nations. Britain no
longer had as much control over Canada. It could
no longer void or change Canadian laws and
British laws no longer included Canada. Canada
had the right to make its own decisions.
9
Canadian British Relations 300
When a British representative in the US was going
to sign this agreement Prime Minister King
announced that there was no need to involve
Britain. He told Britain that Canadas Minister
of Fisheries would be going to Washington to sign
this treaty. The US Senate wanted a British
signature on this treaty until Canada convinced
it to back down.
10
Canadian British Relations 400
After Mackenzie King was elected Prime Minister,
Britain informed the media that both they and
Canada were ready to join in this conflict.
Britain had not consulted with Canada on the
matter of Canadas participation so Prime
Minister King informed them that whether or not
Canada joined was up to Canadas Parliament.
Canadas Parliament was not interested in going
back to war only 3 years after WWI. The decision
not to join showed that Canada was its own
country and would no longer follow Britain.
11
Canadian British Relations 500
Name for colonies in the British Empire that had
control over internal matters but whose external
affairs were controlled by Britain. Because the
colonies had proved themselves of great
importance during the WWI, they wanted to have a
say in all matters concerning themselves.
12
Terms 100
The ability to govern and decide for oneself.
13
Terms 200
Someone who believes that their country should
keep out of the politics and arguments of other
countries.
14
Terms 300
Penalties for disobeying the League of Nations.
These penalties took place in the form of
restricting trade with the nation, the offending
nations economy would suffer and it would be
forced to stop its aggression.
15
Terms 400
The principle that the League of Nations was
based on. If a member state of the League was
under attack, the other members would cooperate
and provide military support to the state.
16
Terms 500
This started at the turn of the century. Due to
technological advances, farms needed less
workers so more people moved to towns and cities
where employees were needed. By 1931, there was a
higher population of people in cities than rural
areas for he first time.
17
Economy 100
The first steps towards this system in Canada was
due to pressure being put on Mackenzie King by
the Progressives to provide assistance to the
unemployed and to provide pensions for the
old-aged. Ottawa agreed to provide half the money
for pensions for people over 70 in need.
18
Economy 200
During the 1920s, this process revealed itself in
the northern areas of Canada due to the
exploitation of natural resources. Pulp and
paper, mining and smelting, and hydroelectricity
gave Canada a new wealth and helped to strengthen
the economy.
19
Economy 300
Set up by the government in 1932 for unemployed,
homeless, single men, they provided shelter, work
and food and would also keep them away from
worried communities. Most werent much better
than prisons as men were paid 20 cents a day, ate
terrible food and slept in bug-infested bunks.
20
Economy 400
Another name for welfare or unemployment
assistance received from the government
21
Economy 500
A Western Canadian organization that proposed to
represent all workers. The main method they
proposed for controlling government and business
was the general strike. Because their ideas were
socialist, government and business feared a
possible revolution like had happened in Russia.
22
Political Movements 100
This party favoured public ownership of
industries and the development of a welfare
system that would make sure no one went homeless
or hungry. J. S. Woodsworth wanted the government
to spend money on public works in order to create
employment and to develop a national minimum wage.
23
Political Movements 200
This partys leader, William Bible Bill
Aberhart, a radio evangelist established the
party in 1935 and promised citizens each 25 a
month for necessities. In 1935 the party won in
Alberta and Aberhart became premier but they
couldnt follow through with their promises. The
government challenged the right of a province to
make its own currency
24
Political Movements 300
The leaders of this movement met with Prime
Minister Bennett but Bennett argued with them
calling them trouble-makers. They argued back and
were removed from his office. The rest of the
movement, who were in Regina, fought against the
RCMP and local polices attempts to remove them
from the stadium where they were held. This
massive riot caused one mans death, many
injuries, and 130 arrests.
25
Political Movements 400
The party won the Quebec election in 1936 and
remained powerful for more than two decades.
26
Political Movements 500
This caused the political movements in different
geographical parts of Canada. Canada was divided
in the 1920s because the rich Canadians in
Central Canada were not financially supporting
the farmers in the West or the fishermen in the
East that were suffering from economic
depression.
