C. :•r; ,`;iiia "Canada produces almost everything" F YOUR HOME 1S not complete with- out a hippo, you'll have to import one. Search as you will, not a hippo can be found from St. John's to Victoria. But almost everything else can, and the wise buyer knows that every dollar spent on Canadian' goods keeps Canadians working. To keep our economy strong, to make better job opportunities, to create jobs for those young people coming on to the labour market, we all must be "label conscious." Before you buy, look at the label. If the price, design and quality are right, buy the product that is made here. If each of us could divert just $2.00 a week from imported to do- mestic goods, the result could total $600,000,000 in Canada in one year ! And that could help create 60,000 new jobs ! Buy a hippo if you must, but for almost everything else, check the label before you buy. It's in your own hest interest. You help yourself, your neighbour and the whole province by giving Canadian products the oppor- tunity to serve and satisfy you. MORI OPPORTUNITY ONTARIO GOVERNMENT TRADE CRUSADE Mr, Wm.
