Canada Pacific plans bold western railway and radio growth
E. W. Beatty announced nationwide improvements and extensions for the Canadian Pacific Railway to begin next year and in 1932, creating work for farmers and absorbing surplus labor. Sir Arthur Currie urged Canadians to seize wealth and opportunity, citing the Peace River country as a future wealth creator. Canada’s radio studios at the Royal York Hotel began broadcasting the “hour of cheerful and good music,” and the railway plans include nationwide radio service through winter. Gasoline use surged due to more cars and farming machinery, while oil heating rose. A 9,000-strong sockeye salmon run was observed at Stamp River Falls, with 59 feet fishways aiding migration.
