Authority for the establishment of a central bank in Canada was first conveyed by the Bank of Canada Act of 1934. Central banking operations commenced in the following year. From 1935 monetary management, in the modern sense of a central bank playing a key role in the financial affairs of a country, has characterized Canadian economic development. It has been argued that the Bank of Canada in the early years of its existence did not at all times function at that high level of performance that is generally expected of institutions of that sort. But it would not be unreasonable to associate the early deficiencies of Canadian central banking with the growing pains of a fledgling institution.
