World War 1 was over. The 1920's in Canada were a time of peace, prosperity and changes. 66.85.12.136 ( talk) 17:22, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
"The common view among most economists is that Roosevelt's New Deal policies either caused or accelerated the recovery, although his policies were never aggressive enough to bring the economy completely out of recession." - this is not true. Most economists since Friedman believe ND/NIRA were ineffective or worsened the Depression. Professors Harold Cole and Lee Ohanian have the most recent publications on the freshwater econ perspective. Please remove this sentence. VanessaD111 ( talk 03:15, 2 February 2022
I've added a lead section too long template to the top of the article as there are 8 paragraphs for an article more than 30,000 characters long. I'll move some of the lead section's content to the body of the page in the coming days Owen250708 ( talk) 12:41, 7 February 2022 (UTC)

Decapitalize "payment" on: moratorium on Payment of war reparations in 4.3. 2A00:23C4:248A:3401:81B5:41E4:677D:A21A ( talk) 01:26, 21 August 2022 (UTC)
That is a few things I can think of you could add Wally Ferris ( talk) 03:47, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
1) Under the heading "Gold Standard" it says "Every major currency left the gold standard during the Great Depression. The UK was the first to do so." But the chart just above shows Argentina and Brazil leaving earlier. Change to: "the first Western country to do so".
2) Under "Turning point and recovery" it says "It was the rollback of those same reflationary policies that led to the interruption of a recession beginning in late 1937." This is badly worded. Was the recession interrupted? Change to "policies that interrupted the recovery with a brief recession beginning"
3) Search for "political turmoil" which occurs in two almost-identical blocks of text. The first instance ends a sentence and is grammatical. The second doesn't and isn't. Make the second the same as the first.
4) Under "Poland" it says "To adopt to the crisis, Polish government employed deflation methods". Change to: "To adapt to the crisis, the Polish government employed deflationary methods"
5) At the end of the same paragraph it says "kicked off the economy, to over 10% annual growth rate". Change to: "kicked off the economy to an over-10% annual growth rate"
6) Under "Spain" it says "By staying neutral in the Second World War, and selling to both sides[clarification needed]". This is nit-picking: what is unclear about "selling to both sides" after "war" has been mentioned? Do they want details of what products were sold or to what countries? Remove the note.
0) It used to be that when a restricted user attempted to edit a protected page, this automatically opened an Edit Request. Now I only get a box telling me in detail that I can't edit (which I already knew from the lock symbol). Please forward to the correct area a request that this feature be restored. But there are fairly-recent Semi-Protected Edit Requests above. How did they generate those? 202.161.64.71 ( talk) 15:27, 14 October 2022 (UTC)
The Netherlands had intended its colony the Dutch East Indies to be a producer of raw products and a consumer of foreign manufactures. By the 1920s, Java—an island of Netherlands India—was the largest producer of sugar in the world after Cuba, however two-thirds of the sugar mills on Java failed during the Great Depression. Another effect of the economic crisis was that the price of raw materials exported by the Indies fell much more rapidly than the price of finished imports. As a consequence, the liberal economic policy which dated from the late nineteenth century which enabled Dutch goods entering the islands to be taxed the same low tariff as goods from other countries, was changed at a time when inexpensive manufactured goods from Japan were beginning to flood the Indies market. The result was adoption of a quota system resulting in reciprocal trade agreements. As world tensions increased, these agreements became political rather than economic, and were aimed at halting a Japanese economic invasion.
The market crash of 1929 affected mostly peasants and workers in the Philippines, which at that time was an American colony. Prices of the basic export crops dropped drastically, causing grave hardship on the peasantry. Many were evicted from land and home and even those who continued working sank into debt. Urban workers lost their jobs as businesses failed. Others suffered cuts in wages as employers passed on to them part of their reverses.
A source of the period linked the rise of the Sakdal movement with the Great Depression.
The postwar depression of 1932-33 further stimulated the labor movement, because our workers sought the protection of labor unions in order to be able to keep their jobs.

Cut "subdression. Where the entire world went flat for 0.54333333333 seconds happened in 1928 december 31st 11:59.99 seconds which caused the great depression! Yeah!" from the first line (revert changes made by Cork32454 at 17:23 today). Catogram ( talk) 18:36, 30 November 2022 (UTC)
There are only 2 mentions of the Dust Bowl in this article, one in relation to Canada and the second one in relation to FDR demagogy. In reality, the Dust Bowl was the MAIN reason for the "greatness" of this depression. FDR tyranny being the other main reason, of course. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.249.43.225 ( talk) 07:32, 27 December 2022 (UTC)
This text should be revised by professional historians. This text is written just terribly ridiculous. (They write about millions of dead... I want to ask why you did not write about the billions dead? Or about the trillions dead? It also has to be written that Stalin ate children.) This mess! Wikipedia should refer to the facts and scientific works of historians, especially when it comes to such topics. And not refer to the myths, invented by scoundrels. There was no socialism in those years, it was still developed by the Soviet people. Moreover, there can be no talk of communism, because there was not even socialism. What does "Russia" do in the text? This is extremely ignorant and insane. Then there was no Russia. And there was the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (which is a socialist state of workers and peasants [since 1936]). Gnosandes ( talk) 19:36, 15 September 2020 (UTC)
