think you II agree that the new rates are still a first class bargain Forone thing these rates have not been increased in over four years For another current postal rates in most Western countries exceed Canada s new postal rates Anyone using the Canadian postal service will find many changes in rates Letters or postcards up to 1 for delivery in Can ada change from to 104 as of September 1 and to 12 as of March 1 for delivery in Canada change from to as of Septem berl 1976 March 1 All greet mg cards should be sealed Rates for special services such as Registered Mail COD and Special Deliv ery Postal Insurance and Money Orders have also changed Major adjustments have been made in parcel rates to create a more equitable rate structure by relating the rates more closely to the distance travelled and the weight of the pa eel In some cases parcel rates have been reduced First class parcels over 1 lb and up to lbs receive our best service More than ever Parcel Post is the low cost way to reach any address in Canada The new Canadian Postal Rates deserve your attention When you post both letters and parcels check with your Postmaster and be sure of the proper rates Correct postage plus the Postal Code will give you better service CHAMPIONS OF THE GBA PEL HOUSE TORONTO DOMINION BANK Front row left bright DougSmlth David Wood Cameron La vers Glenn Schweyir Paul Blackwood Robbie

program is nearly one year old The program was announced last October and the Inflation Act was passed by Parliament in December The goal was to create a fair and stable economic climate for all of us Guidelines were established for the control of profits incomes dividends and professional fees The federal government established a policy of spending restraint The provinces are supporting the program and are applying guidelines areas of provincial concern such as rents The target of the first year of the anti inflation program was to bnng inflation down from a rate of to or less This goal is going to be reached Still many Canadians are concerned about pnces and may feel in fact that pnees are aster their family incomes For most of us this is not the case The facts prove that since the start of the program most of us are better off than we were before because on average are keeping ahead of pnecs be added or subtracted depending on whether a group had kept up with or fallen behind cost of living increases before the program began More than half of the agreements and settlements reported to the Inflation Board have been within these anthmetic guidelines A gradual downward trend in wage increases has started and it should continue as more Canadians realize that because of declining inflation settling for less won hurt them The real gains Since the start of the anti inflation program the average Canadian has actually improved his or her buying power This is because lower wage increases along with lower pnee increases have resulted in a gain in real incomes The real gam is worked out by taking the actual increase in earnings and subtracting from it the effects of higher consumer Real incomes are the best measure of how we re doing of how we can manage to pay our bills at home By this real incomes were up 3 over last year Prices Last year sudden and price increases were happening all loo often By October Canadians had experienced 20 months of inflation of or more No one could be sure how far the dollar earned one day would stretch the next The inflation program was brought in to control the in pnees giving Canadians a better chance to plan and live within their family budgets Pnce increases have slowed down By August the annual rate of increase in the Consumer Index had dropped to 6 Although some pnce increases have to be expected this month and next 8 target will surely be met Wages The anti inflation program has also helped to restrain increases in wages and other incomes The Guidelines on compensation allow for a basic increase of plus 2 as a share of national productivity growth Another 2 can Before 5 noil ftfter earn cam da- Ma May com N VE ITS 36 30 Controls on both pnees and incomes are part of the reason why the inflation rate is dropping The co operation and hard work of most Canadians is the rest of the story We will soon be moving info the second year of the program with a goal of the rate to or less Working together we can reach this target too I Government Gouvernement of Canada Canada INFLATION PROGRAM YEAR ONE
