CASTLEGAR NEWS, Thursday, February 12, 1959 PREMIER Lif The independent firm of Wood Gundy & Company Limited has just released its annual booklet, “Canadian Government and Municipal Financial Statistics,” in which the net debt position of the ten Canadian Provinces is summarized. Prepared from the latest reports of the governments concerned,” the figures prove conclusively that the method used by the Government of the Province of British Columbia to compute its Net Public Debt is the same as that used by all other Provinces of Canada. 4 The figures below are taken from the Wood Gundy report. They show a comparison of the Net Public Debt of the Province of British Columbia with that of the Province of Ontario over the past ten years; also figures pertaining to the B.C. Power Commission and the Ontario Hydro Commissiov . This policy of progressive debt reduction has been one of the chief factors enabling your Social Credit Government to embark on its unprecedented program of. public works, greatly. expand Government agencies and create many new and much-needed jobs for British Columbians. p “SOCIAL CREDIT KEEPS YOU INFORMED” Inserted by the British.Columbia Social Credit, League i.
