HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Brussels Post, 1946-5-1, Page 2THE BRUSSELS POST Wednesday. May 1st, 1»40 tr FOR CA 'S TOUR:,1ST S6NESS MILLIONS OF AMERICAN VISITORS are expected to come to Canada during 1946 for their post-war vacation. It won't always be easy to accommodate them. We still have our crowding and shortages. We are still in the aftermath of war. This is the very reason we should all take special care to be courteous and considerate to our guests this summer. This year, of all years, we must maintain the reputation we have won for true hospitality. YOU MAY NEVER SEE A TOURIST, BUT ago liol- tourist dollars flow to you. The grocer, the garage man, the farmer, the office worker—every- body benefits directly or indirectly from tourist spending, and the extra work and income it creates. Last year, tourists in Canada spent more than one hundred and fifty million dollars. In the years ahead, as our ability to handle tourist traffic grows, who is to say how big this business may become? For Canada is in an enviable position—a natural vacation land nest door to the most travel -minded nation in the world. This is an all-important year! It may be difficult in many ways yet it holds great promise for the future. THEY'LL BE TALKING ABOUT US... We want them to come again. We want them to tell their friends: "We had a marvellous time in Canada!" By making them truly welcome, we can win millions of enthusiastic salesmen for Canada—"satisfied cus- tomers" who will pass on to many times their number the story of Canadian hospitality and of Canada's unlimited attractions as a vacation land.
