"Negotiations are still under way with the United States," he l,told the Commons on January {18, 1960. "Canada', stand might ‘be summarized in this way: It is. true. of course, that "the population as a whole" includes six million children under 15 years, and that therefore the working man really has more money to spend than the person who has reached or is close to retirement Me. But it is also true that the people in the wrrrk- ing-years age group pay for the support of those six million chil- dren - and, in an. Ilsa pay most of the taxes that provide the old-age security pensions Eleven months later, the Prime Minister confessed that snot much progress had been (made: 1 WHO HAS MONEY ', To SPEND". l by cg. Hun-is _ Canadians of what age group have the most money to spend? Surprisingly, the answer is that on the average it is the 65-years- and-over age group. "On a per-person basis," says W. M. Anderson. president of one of the country‘s largest lite in- surance companies. "it may be estimated that when the proposed :ncrease in old-age security is in effect the total current spending power of persons aged 65 and over will average about $123 monthly, compared with antici- pated levels in 1962 for the pop- ulation as a whole of $122 monthly for personal disposal in- come and $114 for personal con- sumer expenditure. Thus it may be seen that the average current spewing power ttt age of 65 and beyond is approximately seven per cent higher than the level ot consumer spending for the whole population," "We are confident that we shall be able to reach formal agreement with the United States on appropriate means to serve the common objective.
