lrovincial Platform

Prince Edward lsl and

The Prince Edward Island CCF offers the following programme to the elec- torate. For years the old parties have promised many of these things but have never done them. Both old parties are financed by the large corporation: and they are not allowed to do anything which would interfere with the power and profits of these corporations.

The CCF is organized and iinanced by the farmers and workers of this Province. The CCF is therefore responsible to the people themselves and is ﬁes, as the old parties can never be, to carry out the wishes of the people.

This fact is well, illustrated by what is happening today regarding prices. Since the close of the war the corporations have urged the end of price control and subsidies. Both old parties, since they are responsible to these corporations because of their campaign contributions, agreed with the policy of ale-control and‘ price control has gone. The results have been disastrous to the Canadian people while at the same time corporation profits have risen to an all-time high.

The CCF, responsible as it is to the people themselves, has fought for the retention of price control _ond subsidies. Its concern is for the welfare of the people. '

The CCF when elected can and will implement its policies.
