1. Go to the following website https://countryeconomy.com/countries/compare/canada/usa

2. Use the mentioned data to answer the questions:
 Prepare brief economy overview of both countries.
 What country has stronger overall economic performance?
 To what organizations countries belong to? How does it help to flourish economy and
international trade?

In my opinion, USA has a stronger economic performance. Its GDP and GDP per capita are higher than
Canada’s, while at the same time other indicators, such as debt, are higher respectively to GDP rate. By
that I mean that while GDP is about 20 times higher, other indicators too. Unemployment rate is a bit
lower in USA, while average wage is much higher. As of the quality of living, it is better in Canada.
Healthcare is cheaper, education in Canada is cheaper, and prices for living are lower in Canada too.

Both countries belong to the same organizations, that helps them cooperate better. Canada and the
United States are member states of international trade organizations, including NAFTA—replaced by
the United States–Mexico–Canada Agreement (USMCA) negotiated in 2018, G7, G20, OECD and
WTO. Being quite interconnected and having place in the same region, helps countries develop.
Especially to both developed countries in the same region. Taking them into account apart, those
organizations and overall connections with other countries/regions help them develop and keep growing
too. Both have high levels of trade with other regions, have a quite high economic impact. Also, USA
has more international trade, as it has more connections with Asian countries and other regions than
Canada.
