    In 1946, Canada gave political asylum to Igor Gouzenko, a soviet sipher clerk responsible for stealing 109 documents, which proved soviet spies were operating in Canada and the United States. Gouzenko’s actions arguably began this period of tension between the Americas and the Soviet Union, now known as the Cold War. When Canada accepted Gouzenko’s claims against the Soviet’s as reality, we launched ourselves into the Cold War. Although the majority of the conflict was between the United States and the Soviet Union, Canada became involved through participation in the Korean War, the Suez Canal crisis as well as the United Nation’s (UN) peace promotion, the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).

After the war, Eisenhower strengthened Social Security, created the massive new interstate highway system and worked behind the scenes to discredit the rabid anti-Communist Senator Joseph McCarthy. Though Eisenhower was popular throughout his administration, he faltered in the protection of civil rights for the African Americans by failing to enforce the Supreme Court's mandate for the desegregation of schools is the well known case, Brown v. Board of Education(1954). As a Republican, Eisenhower was able to achieve numerous legislative victories despite a Democratic majority in congress during his first six of his eight years in office.

    Peace, Progress, Prosperity: How President Eisenhower embodied the 1950s Amanda E. Suzzi Northern Arizona University As John J. Kennedy, an associate professor of political science at West Chester University of Pennsylvania and contributor to various news organizations, writes in his 2014 analysis of Pennsylvania Elections, “It’s not unusual for individuals or events to symbolize each passing decade. The 1960s were times when the twin forces of Civil Rights and Vietnam dominated the news. In the 1970s, it was Watergate. The 1980s were the decade of Ronald Reagan, and Bill Clinton embodied the 1990s. Arguably, however, no one individual or even has come to personify an era – not just in American politics but also in American life – as ‘Ike’…

His long years of military service had exposed him to a wide variety of international issues, both in Asia and in Europe. Eisenhower was determined to bring the Cold War under control. Ideally, he wanted to end it, but as a realist, he would settle for a relaxation of tensions with the Soviet Union. Eisenhower’s record as a cold warrior was thus mixed.…

    Soviet occupation in Poland), and bolstered attacks, asserting on the USSR's behalf, their bent on world domination. The United States misconstrued Soviet intentions and assigned ‘world domination' as Stalin's main goal. With such a seemingly aggressive Soviet threat at hand, the U.S. utilized documents and speeches like Kennan's Long Telegram, Churchill's Iron Curtain Speech and the Truman doctrine to acknowledge the maturing Soviet menace. These three documents and declarations deepened the stratification of the already tenuous Soviet and U.S relationship and unwittingly expedited and worsened Cold War tensions. The Soviets would then respond to the United States via pronouncements and reactions (i.e. the Cominform as a rebuttal to the Marshall Plan) as an escalating tit-for-tat would lead the U.S. and the USSR towards more enmity.…

    I doubt that the Cold War could have been avoided. The Soviet Union had the most powerful army in the world when WWII ended. It steamrolled what was left of the Germany Military and easily sweep aside the Japanese forces in Manchuria. It also controlled most of central Europe and had the resources to hold its new empire, ensuring that the Soviet peoples would not have to endure another pandemic of violence (30 million+ dead) in that century. We had the A-bomb which trumped their military power, if we were willing to use it.…
