The Commons debate touched on policy, not the charges, with various MPs criticizing government actions. Trade Minister Howe announced a wheat price rise to 1.758 per bushel for the five year period ending Aug 1, 1950, and seedings guidance for uncertain flax policy was advised. Labor Minister Mitchell said no shortenings of unemployment waiting periods were requested. Renaud Chapdelaine entered after Nicolet Yamaska by-election victory.
