Auto Industry in Canada

affordable electricity turned places like Toronto into thriving ginormous cities that would prosper these parts brought urbanization. Mining fishing and logging were also a large part of Canadas ever-growing economy. Many inventions were being introduced to Canada like cars, overseas radios, airplanes and more. Immigration had a large part in Canada's economic growth as well, people moving to cities like Toronto, farmers coming to work in the prairies, and even the Chinese coming to work on the railroad all made a big impact on Canada's

own growth but from its participation as a member of the Empire of nations of the

The factors that group two considers important to the Toyota Motor Manufacturing Canada will be using the weighted scoring model which is a system used to document decisions or solutions for management to make informed decisions taking into account all available options when it comes to resource allocation, (Carroll, Farr & Trainor, 2008).

Currently, Canada is economically heavily dependent on larger economic countries for research and development and new technologies. Canada also has always been dependent on the extraction of its primary products for export to other countries. "As far back as 1963 as much as sixty percent of the manufacturing industry was owned by firms whose head office lay outside the region or in foreign countries" (www.Statisticscanada/local/stateprov/ont.html. October 5, 2001).

Since the country’s conception in 1867, Canada has lived in the shadow of it’s southerly neighbour, the United States of America. Through the years, what started out as a country with very distinct culture has morphed and become Americanized. Historically speaking, American influence has had a great economical impact on Canada. Speaking about the Americanization of Canada, Pierre Trudeau, former Prime Minister of Canada, has said, “Americans should never underestimate the constant pressure on Canada which the mere presence of the United states has produced…” This pressure has changed the way Canadians live and conduct business. This pressure has Americanized the Canadian economy. American culture has a very far reaching effect on Canada with many trickle down effects. Americanization of the Canadian economy has lead to the American control of the Canada’s corporate structure, Canadian dependence on American capital, turned the Canadian economy into a mirror image of the American economy, and has led to loss of

Canada is currently sitting at a population of over 30 million people and is ranked 11th in the world in terms of exports (Canada: Economic Freedom, 2017). The economy in the country seems to be thriving very well with many skilled workers and plenty of jobs for most individuals in the civilian labor force. For the most part, Canada has always done pretty well in terms of having a successful economy. Starting in the early 50s Canada was thriving primarily off of the waterways unlike today the country thrives off selling petroleum, cars, and other things other countries need and want. Although this shift from a farm based economy too much more industrialization did not happen until after the Great War, it wasn't until the 1920s until Canada

There was a time, post-World War II when Canada had changed quite a bit. Canada’s population went up rapidly because of the boom and the veterans. The economy developed and there were no economic hardship so students did not drop out of school. It was booming, new technology, thousands of immigrants and new houses especially in the suburbs. New inventions such as the television caused consumerism and cars were being sold rapidly. The television also affected Canada politically. Teenagers with their fashion and rock ‘n’ roll music such as Elvis Presley had a big influence on the society. The baby boom, new technology and the many veterans returning home had a huge impact on Canada socially and economically.

New technologies improved agricultural and industrial productivity. Growing cities provided markets and workers for industrial businesses. Products were allowed to reach distant markets because of improved railroad

In Canada, an important economic transformation accelerated as Britain was wholly supplanted by the United States as Canada's main economic partner. By the middle of the decade, economic development started to soar in Europe and the Roaring

While the government increased its control over “enemy aliens”, it also helped grow the economy through its increased control. The government needed to send munition and resources overseas to the allied soldiers and the Canadian soldiers as well. Therefore munition factories were established and other factories switched and became munition factories. With all the munition factories in business, it generated a lot of money within the economy (in 1914 Canada produced $28 165 worth of war supplies, then 3 years into war, Canada produced $388 213 550 worth of war supplies in 1 year). The significance is that before war was declared, there were little factories or plants that could produce the quantity of munition needed for war. So in accordance to the demand of war supplies during World War 1, Canada generated a lot of wealth in its economy by selling war supplies to Great Britain. The government also insisted many farmers to produce much more crops in order to feed the soldiers overseas. With the government’s insistence to increase production rate, Canada’s record of the largest wheat crop was made in 1915. The significance is that the war revealed some of Canada’s capability to produce crops. Canada’s economy grew due to the increased control of the government.

After the gruesome war Canada had fought in, it has left the economy in pieces, many returning soldiers are unable to find a job or get resettled in the old ones they had left. Many women that had contributed greatly during the war are left in the dust as soon as the war had ended. Canada’s economy will slowly repair itself, though it will take a long time.

The economy of the province of Ontario is the largest in Canada and is rich and diversified. Ontario’s main international export is from the automotive sector with more than 30 % of all its exports. Even though we rarely hear about it in the news; Ontario, of all Canadian provinces, also has the largest base of Office Furniture Manufacturers. Ontario also hosts many generic pharmaceutical companies and defense related industries.

In October 1929, the stock market crashed in the United States. It may have just crashed in the States, but it affected most of the world, including Canada. The crash caused the 1930's to be a period of great depression for citizens and brought the economy into a state of panic. To boost the economy, Canada decided to cut back on military, Canada even reduced it to as low ws 5,000 full - time military personnel. They cut back on military, which then let them to focus more on family and jobs. Well clearly, this was not enough, because The bank of Canada was also established. It established a minimum floor price of wheat. Agriculuture now, had become the most regolated and subsidized in many developing countries to control the problem of the low prices, and income. The International wheat Agreement outlined quotas to control the prices. The Bank of Canada did this because they feared of another depression, so, this was then used to help prevent another one from happening. The Great Depression was such a defining moment for Canada, because Canada dealt with the issues, without looking for financial aid from abroad. Canadians also learned that, in order to keep the economy stable, the country has to take care of its own political, and economic standings. The events that have had the greatest impact on defining Canada are The

Explain the key factors that have allowed Canada to enjoy such a high standard of living compared to nations in the developing world. Your answer must refer to both Canada and the developing world.

     Over the past few years, Canada's economy has done comparatively well and has demonstrated some resilience to the fluctuating global economy. However, Canada remains to be relatively less competitive with respect to other developed countries. In this paper I will attempt to take a closer look at Canada's position in the global economy today and examine the relevant issues.
