• During the Second World War, Canadian citizens were told that their rationing efforts helped support troops overseas. Families were given ration tokens and booklets, which were used in place of currency to buy groceries and household supplies. Meat ration tokens were introduced in 1945 as a way to manage food shortages. Eight tokens equated to one coupon, which allowed citizens to purchase partial rations without the need to waste coupons.
