The Candy Bar War
Manage episode 327177247 series 2995690
Day to day costs were rising in 1947 as post war subsidies were removed. As people became careful in their spending, the youth decided they'd had enough. Canada's kids began a national boycott that terrified 'Big Chocolate'. This was a battle to the death, and only a big fat lie would end the protests.
