Canada’s Response to the 2008 Financial Crisis (2008): (jan 1, 2008 – dec 31, 2008)

Description:

When the global financial crisis hit in 2008, Canada’s banking system was more stable than most, but the country still faced economic challenges. The government introduced a stimulus package to help the economy, which helped avoid the worst of the recession. This was important because it showed Canada’s resilience in times of global financial instability.
