WAR ENDED "DEPRESSION"
Our "depression" lasted until 1939, when the Canadian Government began to spend large amounts of money into circulation for military preparedness for ourselves and future allies in Europe. As soon as the money supply went up people were hired back to work, farms sold their produce instead of plowing it under, mines reopened, factories began to hum and both industrial and residential construction began anew. The "Great Depression" was over. Some politicians were blamed for it and others took credit for ending it. The truth was that lack of money caused it and adequate supply ended it. The people were never told the simple truth and in this article we will endeavor to show how those who "manufacture" and "control" our money have used its profits to "buy" our politicians, and now control our Government.
POWER TO COIN AND REGULATE MONEY
When we can see the disastrous results of an artificially created shortage of money, we can better understand why our Founding Fathers, who understood both money and God's Laws, insisted on placing the power to "create" money and the power to control it ONLY in the hands of the Federal Government. They believed that ALL citizens should share in the profits of its "creation" and therefore the national government must be the ONLY creator of money. They further believed that ALL Canadian citizens, regardless of station in life, would benefit by an adequate and stable currency and therefore the national government must also be, by law, the ONLY controller of the value of money.
Since the Federal Government was the only legislative body subject to all the citizens at the ballot box, it was, to their minds, the only safe depository of so much profit and so much power. They wrote it in simple language, "The Federal Government shall have the Power to Coin Money and Regulate the Value Thereof."
