A situation in which gold and currency reserves leave the United States at such a rate that the nation suffers a balance of payments deficit. 3, record 1, English, - dollar%20glut
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
This situation occurred in the late 1950s and prevailed through the 1960s into the mid-1970s, beginning at first with large-scale foreign aid programs following World War II, continuing with heavy military spending abroad, and climaxing with greatly increased direct investments abroad ... As a result, the dollar was overvalued in relation to other currencies-that is, there was an oversupply of dollars and a shortage of foreign currencies-and consequently had to be devalued (as it was in 1971 and 1973). 3, record 1, English, - dollar%20glut

Dans un premier temps, 1945-1960, le dollar fut rare (dollar gap) et ne fut donc pas contesté. Dans un second temps à partir des années 60, le déficit de la balance des paiements américaine créa une abondance de dollars qui justifia des demandes de conversion en or. 1, record 1, French, - abondance%20de%20dollars

L'industrie céréalière du Canada occupe une place qu'on ne peut sous-estimer ni dans l'approvisionnement des marchés céréaliers mondiaux ni dans la prospérité économique nationale. Les céréales étant, avec les industries du grain, les pâtes et papier et l'industrie minière, l'un des trois principaux déterminants de la balance nette des paiements. Elles sont aussi l'une des trois principales sources de devises étrangères du Canada. 1, record 2, French, - march%C3%A9s%20c%C3%A9r%C3%A9aliers%20mondiaux
