Canadian Certificates for a New Prosperity Pubblico Deposited
Alberta Prosperity Certificates are an interesting example of emergency or depression scrip. The background story of why they were issued involves political and religious intrigue, unrelenting attacks by the media, betrayal by faithful parties and the determination of one man to relieve the suffering of his fellow citizens. The presentation will include details and features of the note, price trends and surviving population estimates as well as the development, implementation, redemption and abandonment of this scheme. Speaker(s): Daniel W. Gosling.
