CANADA'S VETE .,ANS Opeenothiles This is the first of a series of advertisements to inform the people of Canada of plans to re-establish men and women of the armed forces. To get the full details save and read every advertisement. XE J. 's For complete information write for the booklet "Back to Civil Life." The Thta,e Ater Vischarqe — A ESA E TO RELATIVES OF THOSE IN THE ARMED FORCES When your boys and your girls come home, when they lay aside the uniform, when they go out into the world as normal peace -loving Canadians, what lies ahead? Can they pick up their lives as civilians, where they laid them down,, months or long years ago? Are there plans to help them do the things they wanted to do before the war? Will they have security? Can they continue education, or receive needed training? Will they be assisted in home owning, or to establish their own business, and will they be enabled to pick up their family life once again? These are questions which concern all those Canadians who have loved ones in the services. They are questions which this series of advertisements is designed to answer. OPPORTUNITY IS TUE OBJECTIVE '';BAR SERVICE GRATUITY Canada has been ma your girl's return to civilian life since early in11940. These plans are in effect and operating now. The aim is that every person who has served shall have opportunity. Thousands, already back in civilian life, have benefitted by training, by main- tenance grants, by advice of departmental officials, and by the social security provisions. There is ample help for those men and women who want to help themselves. king plans for your boy's and On discharge, those enlisted to serve outside • ASSISTANCE ON DISCHARGE When your boys and girls are discharged from the services, they will be given: 1. A clothing allowance of $100.00 (if discharged after August 1, 1944). , 1 Their pay to date of discharge. 3. One month's additional pay, if they have 183 days' continuous service, as a rehabilitation grant. 4. A railway warrant home or to the place of enlistment. Dependents will receive: 1, Their normal dependents' allowance to date of discharge; with- assigned pay. 2. An additional month's dependents' allowance, with assigned pay, if there has been 183 days' continuous service. Your boy or girl will be allowed to retain certain items of uniform. They will be given a complete medical and dental examination and will be eligible for free needed treatment for a year after discharge. Those discharged not physically fit, in need of continuing treatment and unable to work, will have their pay, and allowances of rank continued for at least a year if necessary and, if the disability is pensionable, for as long as curative treatment is beneficial. All are interviewed by Veterans' Welfare Officers and told of the re-establishment programme. Canada, or those who served in the Aleutian Islands, are eligible for a war service gratuity. It provides $7.50 for each thirty days' service in Canada and the Western Hemisphere and $15.00 for each thirty days' service overseas or in the Aleutian Islands. For those with overseas service or, with service in the Aleutian Islands, there is an additional sevdn days' pay and allowances for each six months of such service. Payments will be made at the end of each month in the months follow- ing discharge. Complete details of the war service gratuity will be given in a later advertisement. RE-ESTABLISHMENT CREDIT In addition to the war service gratuity, there is a re•establisbment credit of $7.50 for each thirty days' service in the Western Hemisphere and $15,00 • for each thirty days" service overseas. This is for things such as the purchase or repair of a home, • the buying of furniture, a business, or government life insurance, and for certain other purposes which will assist your boy or your girl in becoming re- established. This credit, which is reduced by grants given for training or education, or under the Veterans' Land Act, is primarily for those who do not wish assistance under these three plans. RETURN TO FORMER JOBS If your boy or girl neld a civilian position before, enlisting, and was not engaged to replace somebody already in the forces, and if the position still exists, and your boy or girl is capable of filling it, it is the employer's duty, under the law of Canada, to reinstate him or her in that position with seniority. Application for reinstatement must be made to the former employer within three months of discharge from the forces or from hospital. Veterans' Welfare Officers are stationed in key centres throughout Canada. They are the friends of Ex -Service men and women.. It is their duty to advise and assist all Ex -Service personnel with their re-establishment problems. If there is anything about the Rehabilitation programme which you do not understand, con- sult your nearest Veterans' Welfare Officer. "RAINING AND EDUCATION The surest way to permanent employment—the thing your boy or girl will want—is a skill to get and to hold a job. Canada's plans give opportunity to acquire needed skill either at university or in preparation for a business or industrial career. Fees are paid by the state, along with living allowances, -bile training or continuing education. 111LE ILL OR UNEMPLOYED There is protection against illness or unemployment by maintenance allowances which can be drawn against in the first eighteen months after discharge. There is also protection under the Unemployment Insurance Act for' those who enter insured env nloyment and remain in it fifteen weeks, SOME OWNING AND FARMING There is provision to assist city and other workers to have homes of their own, either on small acreages of land outside the high taxation area, or in town, under the National Housing Act. Full-time farmers can be given financial assistance in full-time farming, ' while commercialfishermen may secure financial help in getting their own names, on small acreages ' f land, and in buying needed fishing equipment. • • FREE TREATMEN`I In the year following discharge, service men and women arc eligible for free treatment, hospitalize - tion and allowances for any condition, even if not the result of service. Pensioners are entitled to this for life for their pensioned disability. • HE -POLICY ON PENSIONS Canada's Pension Act is administered by an independent commission, all former members of the services. Any permanent disability suffered over- seas, not a result of misconduct, is pensionable. Where service is in Canada only, the disability must be a result of service..
