Consumer's News
Of all the different "promo-
tion" weeks that are with us to-
day, the week of March 1-7 is
the only one that includes the
entire population --Consumer
Week in Canada, 1970.
It includes everyone simply
because it is impossible not to
be a consumer. We are consum-
ers the moment we are born
and remain consumers until we
die. hence, the extremely
applicable slogan chosen by
Consumers' Association of Can-
ada to mark the first week in
March --"Consumers Count."
The main idea of having a
consumer week, Consumers'
Association of Canada officials
point out, is to focus everyone's
attention on themselves and the
role they play in Canada's econ-
omy. Without consumers, the
very logical argument goes,
there just wouldn't be an econ-
omy.
Across the country, local CAC
branches from March 1 to 7 will
endeavor to bring home to the
public the need for intelligent
and wise application of con-
sumer knowledge in their day-
to-day dealings in what one
economist has said "is a con-
fusing --indeed a frightening --
marketplace,"
Consumers' Association of
Canada is the only solidly or-
ganized body of consumers which
represents everyone at govern-
ment and manufacturing levels.
At the same time, the Associa-
tion conducts a continuing pro-
gram of consumer information.
Main effort in this program is
its bi-monthly magazine, "Can-
adian Consumer." This conies'
automatically to all members
of the Association, and since
membership is open to everyone,
anyone may receive The mag-
azine by joining CAC. A free
brochure on how to join is avail-
able by writing Consumers' Assoc.
iation, 100 Gloucester St., Ott-
awa 4,
Whenever a buying guide is
published in the magazine, it
is reprinted later in leaflet form
and made available free, in
single copies only, to all those
requesting it.
