History tends to repeat itself. In economics, past policy often works to help with current Inflationary and Unemployment problems. At the least, economic policy can show what not to do as well as what has worked in the past. This paper deals with the 1990's effect of Inflation and Unemployment in Canada and serves as a template for Western central banks to use for the future. Perhaps nothing frustrates economists and politicians more than the never-ending fight to control unemployment and inflation. The simple reason being that the general populace understands the implications of these two areas better than any other area of economic theory. Because it gets them right where it hurts - in the pocket! Governments have fallen in many a country because of uncontrollable inflationary pressures coupled with a high unemployment rate.
