national polices
The National Policy was a Canadian economic program introduced by John A. Macdonald's Conservative Party in 1876 and put into action in 1879. It called for high tariffs on imported manufactured items to protect the manufacturing industry. [ Macdonald campaigned on the policy in the 1878 election, and defeated the Liberal Party, which supported free trade. ]
