Seventy-five years ago, the United States was less than a month away from entering the war, but Canada had been at war with Germany since 1939.  In this ad from this date’s issue of Broadcasting magazine, November 10, 1941, the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation reminded potential American advertisers that Canada was carrying on.  Despite wartime conditions, industry was at capacity, new factories were coming online, employment was at a peak, and most important for advertisers, retail sales were showing gains.

The CBC was serving wartime duties, and it reminded advertisers that it provided complete broadcast services to reach the Canadian market.
