Which organization was Canada a part of to help manage international trade and economic growth after World War II?

  1. NATO

  2. NORAD

  3. GATT (now WTO)

  4. UNESCO

The correct answer is: GATT (now WTO)

After World War II, many countries wanted to improve international trade and economic growth. The General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade (GATT) was created in 1947 to help achieve this goal. It later became the World Trade Organization (WTO) in 1995. NATO (A) and NORAD (B) were military alliances, not organizations focused on trade and economic growth. UNESCO (D) focuses on education, science, and culture, so it also does not fit the context of the question. Therefore, the correct answer is C GATT (now WTO).
