6. Identity 2 – Federal or Provincial?
Federal government given lots of power during World War Two – Total war
Shift left in politics – lassaiz-faire to social programs provided by government
New social programs came out of the war – hospital care, unemployment insurance and pensions
Also Canada newly wealthy from resources and income tax
Disagreement over who should get what

7. Identity 2 – Federal or Provincial?
Federal Government given Tax raising powers – especially income tax
Money given to provinces for social programs
Poorer provinces (have nots) helped by Equalisation Payments from wealthier provinces (haves).
Provinces get control of Natural Resources
New mega projects to use cash to build infrastructure – roads, bridges. Dams etc.

8. The Flag Debate
Red Ensign
Pearson Flag

9. Pearson Vs Diefenbaker
Pearson – Canada needs it’s own unique flag to reflect it’s unique national character. The maple leaf should be used as the symbol for Canada as was used in World War One
Diefenbaker – A country is a result of it’s history. The Canadian flag should respect heritage of Canada as being founded from France and UK.
