Alberta Premier Aberhart’s Social Credit debate heats Canada
Liberal leader Mackenzie King warned that Social Credit could spread across the nation if Alberta’s plan succeeds. King urged testing Alberta’s program before electoral expansion, noting questions about Ottawa governing prospects while the Alberta experiment unfolds. He cited the $25 to $75 monthly figure as a common aim of world aging policy. In Prince Albert, King pressed for patience and trade policy reflection amid Western Canada’s past prosperity under Liberal rule. The report moves to page eight.
