The investment a father chooses to safeguard his family's future is undoubtedly the most significant purchase of a lifetime. Each year more Canadians look to the one guaranteed investment—life insurance. With a practical life insurance program, a father can build assets to realize future dreams while he protects, daily, all that he holds dear. In 1961, Manufacturers Life paid out over $68 millions to families who made this in- vestment in their future—vital dollars, for these were received at a time of greatest need! It was a record year for payments and a record year in protection for new policyowners. If you too want to guarantee a financially secure tomorrow for yourself and your family, why not call the Man from Manufacturers today.
