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.
