We will also examine some of Canada's most important trading partners, with three bonus five to six minute segments on China, Mexico and the United States. These segments present a brief overview of the location, climate, geographic features, culture and trading relationships found in these countries. In addition, students are given an overview of the history of trade in Canada beginning with the aboriginal people and early explorers. Topics such as the fur trade, early immigration and the building of early transportation systems are discussed. |
