message: The sentence: "In the years between 1919 and 1929, Canada had the world's fastest growing economy, with only a sharp but brief recession during the First World War." doesn't seem to be logical, since World War I ended before 1919. I am not sure how to fix this problem from a factual point of view. --212.199.78.54 (talk) 10:07, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

message: :File:YongeStreetMission.jpg is seemingly not from the great depression. This is pretty embarrassing when you realise that when you search "Great Depression in Canada" this is the first result. I can't find a reputable primary or secondary source which confirms this, unfortunately, but I do have suspicions, and I think it's rather vital that this be changed if it's true that this photo isn't from the 1930s. 
As for why I believe this, Toronto Public Library and The Toronto Star both list it as being from 1912, not the 1930s. If you can find a reputable source which confirms the specific date that would be great. Hello World! (talk) 14:41, 29 March 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Unfortunately the uploader has not edited in years so is unlikely to chime in on what led the image to be labeled as being from the 1930s. Do you have a proposed alternative? Nikkimaria (talk) 03:02, 30 March 2022 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh I know why the image was labelled as 1930's. The charity depicted in this image listed the image as being from the 1930's on one of their own pages! This page has since been taken down, however this really threw a wrench in the time-stamping of this image, since people cited the charity's page for the date, assuming they were a primary (and reputable) source for their own images, which clearly they are not. No clue what to replace it with. Not really sure where you'd search for something like that. I just thought this was appalling and I thought it was worth pointing out so that maybe someone who knows more about where to find good images could replace it. Hello World!
