A CORNER ON TOURISTS
Annually, l,'y train, bout, bus and private
car, more tourists enter Ontario than all
the other provinces of Canada combined.
In 1945,.although gasoline rationing was
not lifted until August, 2,070,000 Ameri-
can motor cars carne in forless-th an -forty-
eight -hour stays and 554,000 for longer
periods. Competent author-
ities estimate Ontario's
yearly share of tourist reve-
nues as 60% to 70% of
Canada's total. The pro-
vince expects at least
10,000,000 American visi-
tors in 1946.
