THIS CAN BE THE SAWN
OF OUR GREATEST DAY!
Canadians have never willingly elected to power a government which baa failed
to remain faithful to the democratic principle of free enterprise.
By their insistence on retaining emergency powers granted for war only, the
Liberals have confused and frustrated every branch of our economy by a mass of
ever -clanging orders and regulations. Canada's future, your own future and the
future of your children hangin the balance. On June 27th, vote for the Progres-
sive Conservative Party which will insist on government being the servant of the
people—not the master!
HIGHLIGHTS OF PLATFORM
TAX REFORMS
Income tax exemptions will be raised to 91,250 for single persons and to
$2,500 for married people; Allowances for dependent children will be
increased by $200. The present heavy sales tax, which cuts the purchasing
value of the dollar by More than the tax, will be sharply reduced. Ali
unnecessary nuisance taxes will be abolished.
FARM SECURITY
We will ensure stability of income to farmers by the enactment of permanent
floor price legislation. We will incorporate into the Perm Prices Support
Act a definite formula for arriving at floor prwet, to be set only after con-
sultation with representatives of producers. Floor prices will always be an -
noticed well in advance of the production period.
SMALL BUSINESS
With skyhiph taxes owners of small businesses have been left with far too
little of their profits to carry out desirable prograins.of expansion. We
will grant exemptions to private business where profits are reinvested in
enterprise sad expansion. We will also encourage business in general by
allowing tlae Cat hllian dollar to find its own level.
BETTER SOCIAL! SECURITY
We will make available to every Canadian by a "Contributory Social
Security Program; Retirement Pensions at 65 witbo•s a Means test sick-
ness and disability benefits: extended un -employment insurance benefits
with payment far lost time, due to accidents or sickness.
