EAT ATIO,N:IN.G \. Food is a weapon of war, and we must share our supplies with those who are fighting to keep the war from our shores: After all special wartime demands are taken care of, only one half of the meat produced . in Canada will be available for ordinary domestic consumption at home. Meat supplies forour rmed Forces must be maintained at all costs. • 1 Great Britain has to depend more and_more on Canada for supplies to maintain even its present low ration rate of 28 cents worth of meat . per person, per week. ' Since the war started .. the consumption ,of meat by• •civil:ians-Pias increased in' Canada. Great defense project'ssuch as the Alcan Highway and the. Shipshaw• Power Develop- ment have created new and large demands for meat in areas where practically no demand existed before. , Canned Meat is required ' in Large ' quantities by the `Red Cross to send. to our boys who are prisoners of war. _ - Places like Newfoundland and.the West Indies, which previously secured their . meat from other sources -must now depend to . a 'great ,.dex.tent._on._Canada,... -. The many extra ships of the United Nations" , now calling at Canadian ports, must . be furnished with meat. RATIONING IS INTELLIGENT FORESIGHT— INTELLIGENT PLANNING Coupon rationingis the only way of ensuring equal sharing of the meat available for civilian consumption . n Canada. Those with lots of money will not get more than their share—and those' with less money will be assured, of getting their . fair share. . Rationing will help prevent local meat shortages such as occurred last year from becoming widespread and continuous throughout the whole " Dominion. The incentive for -panic-buying which empties butcher shops early in the day, will be eliminated. THE MEAT RATION4ILL.BE AMPLE FOR HEALTH AND NUTRITION Fortunately, ,our. meat . production in Canada has increased. So, although only half our production will be available for civilian use; it wil' mean a reduction of ;only about 15% to 20% in the average, household consumption. The proposed ration of 2 lbs.carcass weight.) {per person, per week, has been approved by the country's leading food and nutrition authorities, as ample for the health and nutrition standards of everyone ---regardless of age or occupation.
