In terms of general information, it may be stated that the Plan provides a certain limited FREE COMPENSATION for damage to owner -occu- pied homes and to chattels, but the main feature of the Plan is that owners of most types of property can protect their property by PUR- CHASE of GOVERNMENTWAR RISK INSURANCE at very moderate rates. This type of War Risk Insurance is not being sold today by private insurance companies, 1 ecause .of the risk involved. Consequently, the Government has established: a national scheme to make it possible for each citizen in Canada -to purchase the sense of security that comes from knowing that if his property 'does suffer war damage (and the war has come much closer to •Carnada .in the last twelve months) he can call on the resources of t'•9:mada -to help him make good his property loss. HOW TO OBTAIN GOVERNMENT WAR RISK INSURANCE . The Fire Insurance .gents and Companies of Canada have volunteered to the Government the:servi esioftheir extensive facilities and personnel, on a non-profit basis, thus avoiding the setting up of the targe :organiza- tion that otherwise would be needed to handle details of this nation-wide Government War Risk _insurance scheme.
