What Does Inflation Mean to r Li i Why, we couldn’t buy enough food to keep our families healthy under inflation. For wages and salaries never catch up to prices when they start to soar! How would we like to pay $1.10 a dozen for eggs? You say it can't happen? Don’t forget it’s already happened right here in this Domin­ ion, during the last war. And it will happen again .. . unless we’re on our toes to keep the cost of living down. Every Canadian must face this challenge! It’s our responsibility. But be of good heart. Living costs have risen LESS in Canada than anywhere else. Canada leads the world in the fight against inflation. HERE’S HOW IT’S DONE — In 1941, Canada determined to control the cost of living. Price ceilings were established on wages, rentals and commodities; subsidies were paid on essential foods; goods in short supply were rationed ... so that everyone could get their fair share at a price they could afford to pay! »But control of prices is a two-way responsibility. It needs your support if it is to continue working effectively. make this Pledge Today I I PROMISE to give my support to keeping the cost of living down. I will buy only what I need—I will observe the ceil­ ing whether buying or selling goods or services. I’ll pay off old debts, save for the future, invest in Victory Bonds and War Savings Certificates—and will support taxes which help lower the cost of living.
