During the 1920’s Canada’s economy prospered, since many countries recovering from the horrors and especially damages of the war, required Canadian products. Canada’s abundance in resources such as pulp, forestry, wheat and mining greatly contributed to Europe’s recovery as well as the Canadian economy. Throughout this decade, many products and resources became more available such as cars due to mass production techniques developed to meet the product demand. For instance, the vehicle ownership rate in Canada increased from 300 000 in 1918 to 1.9 million by 1929.

Trudeau ran under the slogan of creating “the Just Society” (Fellows and Wells, 2013) in Canada, and unlike Diefenbaker, Trudeau would manage to achieve what he promised the public.

All of these changes and reform were things that others had promised previous to Trudeau but constantly failed to

The year 1867 is perhaps Canada’s best known year historically; for it is the year we became a country, independent and free. However, confederation did not begin as an idea in 1867, but rather in the few years prior to 1867. A number of factors, often related, had led people in the 1860’s to believe that the BNA colonies needed to join. These factors, known as the reasons for confederation, are as follows: 1) Political Deadlock 2) The Railway 3) Economic Necessity 4) American Threat 5)

When Prime Minister Wilfrid Laurier stated, “As the 19th century was that of the United States, so I think the 20th century shall be filled by Canada”, the decades that followed provided his statement to be true as Canada became an independent and strong nation. The battlefields in World War One were a defining moment for Canada as their forces fought as one nation for the first time, instead of under British Command. Also, at the end of the war, Canada was recognized at the Peace Conference and signed the Treaty of Versailles as an independent country. In addition, Canada joined the League of Nations, playing a major role in world politics. These events in the early 20th century allowed the beginning of a strong nation with a growing national

To call this era of drastic change the ‘Quiet Revolution’ is a vivid, and yet, paradoxical description. The Quiet Revolution was a time of intense socio-political and socio-cultural change in Quebec, which extended beyond Quebec’s borders because of its influence on contemporary Canadian politics. As a result of the effects of the changes that occurred during this Quiet Revolution, most Quebec provincial governments since the early 1960s have maintained political and social orientations based on the core concepts developed and implemented during the Quiet Revolution. As such, there is no doubt that the Quiet Revolution had a significant impact in Canadian History. This impact can be characterized by the prelude to the Quiet Revolution; the demographic evolution of Quebec; the social educational reforms that were put in place; the economic reforms and their impact; the rise of nationalism; and finally, the cultural changes that occurred.

Octavia is described by Italo Calvino (1974) in his book Invisible Cities as the spider-web city; it is a city hanging over the void between two mountains. The infrastructure that holds the city together is made of ropes, chains, and catwalks. The mere existence of the city depends entirely on this infrastructure, a 'net which serves as passage and as support' (Calvino, 1974: 75). If, or actually when, this infrastructure fails, the city will collapse altogether. Calvino's imagined city of Octavia stands as an excellent allegory of contemporary cities in view of their dependence on critical infrastructure systems.
