RB Bennett
Lost to King in 1935 election
Last ditch effort – “Bennett’s New Deal”
Changes didn’t help people suffering
Gave relief $ to provinces
Raised tariffs
Promised work for all
Rival to King in 1930 election
William Lyon Mackenzie King (PM 1921-1926) said welfare was the responsibility of the provinces not the Federal government.
Believed the best way to handle the Depression was waiting it out
Insisted social welfare was a provincial, not federal, responsibility
He also said he would not give 5 cents to any province that didn’t have a Liberal government
He was voted out of power in 1930 and replaced with Conservative leader R.B. Bennett – “I will find work for all”
Back in power in 1935
Cause 6: Buying stocks on margin (credit)
Brokers gave loans, but with high interest rates
To buy $1000 worth of stock, you only needed $100 (but you were still responsible for the other $900, and counted on profit to cover it)
Cause 5: Credit purchases
Drove many into bankruptcy
People couldn’t keep up with payments when sick or out of work
“Buy now, pay later” more popular
Cause 4: Problems with tariffs & trade
Result = slowed world trade
Protective tariffs = taxes countries put on imports to protect their own goods
Cause 3: Dependence on the USA
Relied on USA for imports and exports
Depression hit the US before Canada
Cause 2: Dependence on a few primary products
This hurt areas where those products were the main sources of income
Once the demand for staples sank, so too did our prosperity
Canada's staple products: fish, minerals, wheat, pulp & paper
Cause 1: Over-production and over-expansion
Stock piled up, production slowed, workers ended up being laid off
Market became saturated, people stopped buying
Business was booming after WWI
"Black Tuesday"
Mass panic & financial devastation
Was not a cause, but rather a symptom of the depression
The day the stock market crashed
October 29, 1929

4. Asians, Blacks, Gypsies and Jews
3. Central and Eastern Europeans
2. Northern Europeans
1919, 20% of the population were immigrants

In 1918, Prime Minister Borden incorporated prohibition into Canada’s war effort
Distillers’ and brewer’ ingredients were needed to feed the troops
illegal methods of selling alcohol
Lobbied to ban gambling, drinking, theatre attendance, and public dancing
Prohibition did reduce alcohol consumption by about 80 percent
Prohibition was unpopular with the voters; besides, governments could raise money by controlling and taxing the sale of liquor
Second, if the world was to be a better place after the war, prohibiting alcohol was seen as one way to achieve it!
First, during the war, using food to produce alcohol for simple consumption was regarded as wasteful
Prohibition in Canada was firmly rooted in the First World War!
Terrible conditions

Extremely high unemployement rates after the war
