Tariff protection for canadian manufacturers. It was set in motion in the budget of 14 march 1879 after consultation with business interests. It was intended to be a nationalistic policy which would broaden the base of the canadian economy and restore the confidence of canadians in the development of their country. The tariff on most foreign manufactured goods was increased, affording substantial protection to canadian manufacturers. Equally important to the manufacturers were the reduced customs duties on the necessary raw materials and semi-processed products, which lowered their costs of production. 1, record 2, English, - National%20Policy

Imposition du tarif douanier pour protéger les fabricants. Elle est mise en œuvre dans le budget du 14 mars 1879 après consultation du milieu des affaires. Politique nationaliste, elle vise à élargir la base de l'économie canadienne et a réinstaurer la confiance des canadiens dans le développement de leur pays. On hausse donc le tarif douanier sur la plupart des biens manufacturiers étrangers, ce qui a pour effet de mieux protéger les fabricants canadiens. De plus, ces derniers profitent grandement de la réduction des droits de douane sur les matières premières et les produits semi-finis, ce qui diminue le coût de production. 1, record 2, French, - Politique%20nationale
