Question

1) The essential question for the last few lessons asks "How did Canada seek to establish economic security and social justice from the period of the depression to the patriation of the Constitution? What kind of economic security did the Canadians seek? What kind of social justice?" Create an organizer that outlines the steps that Canada took to create both.


2)In what ways did Canada become a welfare state between 1931 and 1982? How did this alter the way Canadians saw themselves? In what ways do you think economic and social inequalities continued?

I don't understand how to answer these questions. For the second question I don't know what to answer for the second part, about how it altered the way Canadians saw themselves and the last part, how the inequalities continued.

Answer 1

First go back and study your last few lessons. These questions are discussed there.

1) Then create an organizer. Look at what Canada did to help the poor get jobs and health care and other benefits from about 1930 to 1982.

2) What is a welfare state? Did the introduction of this state change Canadians' self perceptions? The last question asks for your opinion.
