The Royal Commission on Canada's Economic Prospects was initiated by the Louis St. Laurent government in order to develop recommendations regarding the Canadian economy. Chaired by Walter L. Gordon, its 1956 and 1957 reports were representative of a period of growing concern for Canadian nationalism and questioned the government's policy of allowing control of Canada's natural resources and other business enterprises to be sold to foreign interests. The Canada Development Corporation was created in 1971 as a result of both the Royal Commission's and the Watkins Report's recommendations.

  • La Commission royale d'enquête sur les perspectives économiques du Canada, aussi connue sous le nom de Commission Gordon, a été mise sur pied par le gouvernement de Louis St-Laurent en 1955 afin de faire le point sur la situation de l'économie canadienne. Le rapport final de la commission, dirigée par le comptable Walter L. Gordon, a souligné la sévérité des disparités régionales à travers le Canada en plus de s'inquiéter des politiques gouvernementales trop favorables aux capitaux étrangers. (fr)

  • La Commission royale d'enquête sur les perspectives économiques du Canada, aussi connue sous le nom de Commission Gordon, a été mise sur pied par le gouvernement de Louis St-Laurent en 1955 afin de faire le point sur la situation de l'économie canadienne. Le rapport final de la commission, dirigée par le comptable Walter L. Gordon, a souligné la sévérité des disparités régionales à travers le Canada en plus de s'inquiéter des politiques gouvernementales trop favorables aux capitaux étrangers. Les préoccupations exprimées dans le rapport Gordon ont donné lieu à des programmes de développement économiques, dans un premier temps dans les régions rurales, puis au niveau provincial et interprovincial. Elles ont également lancé dans le débat public la question des investissements directs américains au Canada qui ont trouvé écho dans les recommandations du rapport Watkins (1968) et Gray (1972) et qui ont mené aux politiques économiques nationalistes du gouvernement Trudeau au début des années 1970.

  • The Royal Commission on Canada's Economic Prospects was initiated by the Louis St. Laurent government in order to develop recommendations regarding the Canadian economy. Chaired by Walter L. Gordon, its 1956 and 1957 reports were representative of a period of growing concern for Canadian nationalism and questioned the government's policy of allowing control of Canada's natural resources and other business enterprises to be sold to foreign interests. When Gordon became Minister of Finance a decade later, he commissioned Mel Watkins to conduct a further investigation into foreign ownership of the Canadian economy, resulting in the "Watkins Report". The Canada Development Corporation was created in 1971 as a result of both the Royal Commission's and the Watkins Report's recommendations. (en)
