Why is 1930's a significant year to canada

History
1 answer:
Llana [10]4 years ago
6 0
Canada was hit hard by the Great Depression. Between 1929 and 1939, the gross national product dropped 40% (compared to 37% in the US). Unemployment reached 27% at the depth of the Depression in 1933. Many businesses closed, as corporate profits of $396 million in 1929 turned into losses of $98 million in 1933. Families saw most or all of their assets disappear and their debts became heavier as prices fell. Canadian exports shrank by 50% from 1929 to 1933. Worst hit were areas dependent on primary industries such as farming, mining and logging, as prices fell and there were few alternative jobs.

First wave feminism sought all of the following EXCEPT:
harkovskaia [24]

Answer: A. Drastic change in traditional gender roles and norms

Explanation:

Even though the first feminists advocated for a lot of things which they hoped would better the lives of women, they did not favor a drastic change to traditional gender roles and norms.

They wanted women to continue taking care of their families and husbands but they wanted to be able to do so more effectively by being empowered so that they could contribute more to their family's wellbeing. For instance, by being able to get better jobs to bring in more income.

What was lincolns purpose for writing the house divided speech
o-na [289]

Lincoln hoped to use a well-known figure of speech to help rouse the people to recognition of the magnitude of the ongoing debates over the legality of slavery. His use of this paraphrased metaphor is perhaps clearer when you look at some more of his speech:

"A house divided against itself cannot stand." I believe the government cannot endure permanently half slave and half free. I do not expect the Union to be dissolved — I do not expect the house to fall — but I do expect it will cease to be divided. It will become all one thing or all the other. Either the opponents of slavery will arrest the further spread of it, and place it where the public mind shall rest in the belief that it is in the course of ultimate extinction; or its advocates will push it forward till it shall become alike lawful in all the States, old as well as new — North as well as South.

As you can see, in this metaphor, the "house" refers to the Union — to the United States of America — and that house was divided between the opponents and advocates of slavery. Lincoln felt that the ideals of freedom for all and the institution of slavery could not coexist — morally, socially, or legally — under one nation. Slavery must ultimately be universally accepted or universally denied.
