Label TextThis is a Second World War (1939-1945) beer ration book. From May 1943, rationing permitted Canadians aged twenty-one years and over to purchase twenty-four pints of beer per month. Beer shortages had resulted from the government’s December 16, 1942 Wartime Alcohol Beverage Order. It had restricted the amount of beer brewers could sell. Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King lifted beer restrictions on March 13, 1944.
