Among the events you listed, the following impacted or involved Canada and the United States:
A) The Great Depression - This economic downturn affected both Canada and the United States significantly, as they were closely linked economically. The Great Depression led to high unemployment rates, a decrease in industrial production, and economic hardship in both countries.
B) Mexican-American War - Although this conflict primarily involved the United States and Mexico (1846-1848), its outcomes had indirect effects on Canada. The war and its aftermath, such as the expansion of the U.S. West, influenced territorial discussions and the geopolitical landscape in North America, although Canada was not directly involved in the conflict.
C) Mexican Cession - This refers to the territory ceded to the United States by Mexico after the Mexican-American War, including present-day California, Nevada, Utah, Arizona, and parts of Colorado and New Mexico. While Canada was not directly involved in this event, the changes in U.S. territory after the war did affect the broader North American dynamics.
In summary, while the Great Depression had a direct and substantial impact on both Canada and the United States, the Mexican-American War and the Mexican Cession primarily involved the United States and Mexico, with indirect implications for Canada.
