What was rationed in Canada during ww1?

Answer 1

Weekly, each Canadian adult was entitled to have 1.8 kg of meat and 220g of sugar. The government also encouraged people not to horde. Gasoline was needed for the transportation and airplane fighter crafts. Each Canadian adult was limited to 26 L weekly.
