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. All Meat supplies for our Armed Forces must be maintained at all costs. Canned meat is required in large quantities by the Red Cross to send to our boys who are prisoners of war. 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. Places like Newfoundland and the West Indies, which previously secured their meat from other sources must now depend to a great extent on Canada. . . Since the war started the consumption of meat by civilians has increased in Canada. Great defense projects such 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. The many extra ships of the United Nation* now calling at Canadian ports, must be furnished with meat. . RATIONING IS INTELLIGENT FORESIGHT INTELLIGENT PLANNING Coupon rationing is the only way of ensuring equal sharing of the meat available for civilian consumption in 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 RATION WILL 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 Ibs. (carcass weight) per person, per week, has been approved by the country's leading food and nutrition authorities, at ample for the health and nutrition standards of everyone regardless of age or occupation. ?
