From Peter Johnson [04:37, 24 November 2005 (UTC)]: "For many years [...] was little government regulation of the nation's money supply." I added the word "government" because it is my opinion that the free market does in fact regulate—and marvellously so—so to imply that only "government regulation" is regulation as such would be POV.
It depends on your definition of "free market". If like Adam Smith, a "free market" is a market free from unearned income, not government regulation (law), then Mr. Johnson's statement makes no sense. 24.36.78.185 (talk) 01:28, 7 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Assessment
I have assessed this as a Start Class, as it is thorough, but has far too few references for it content and importance. If proper references were added, it would probably be a B Class article. I have rated it as high importance, because I feel that it is of vital importance to understanding Canada and that most readers would have some understanding of it.

Inflation (POV)
The whole paragraph on inflation and how it is measured is POV to such a degree that, as it is right now, it is useless. I have removed it. Shanebratt (talk) 05:11, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
