August1991 Posted November 21 Author Report Share Posted November 21 Argentina has everything that we Canadians have - including guys like Smallwood, Manning, Duplessis, Diefenbaker. But we Canadians have elected a Thompson, King, Laurier - we've often voted against our tribe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both Canada and Argentina have every natural resource. In 1900, both countries had a similar GDP per capita. By 2000, we Canadians are 2x more productive than people in Argentina. ==== I reckon federalism works.

"Inflation Rate in Argentina increased to 142.70 percent in October from 138.30 percent in September of 2023. " "1980s spurring chronic hyperinflation throughout that decade. The inflation crisis hit a peak in 1989 with rates reaching more than 3,000 percent at certain points." Argentina is not like Canada in any way LOL 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
