Rib steak with all the trimmings for $1.90 in 1963 = $13.45 today according to the Bank of Canada inflation calculator. Not a bad deal.

ahhh, the amazing NFB cine-robotheque, only now starting to be eclipsed by the NFB.ca website.

Speaking of before-after, I organized a old-ski-movie film festival here a few years ago, there's some great films on laurentian skiing in the old days, pre-autoroute before cars were primary transportation mode. I think it was "valley of the saints" or something similar (i.e. st-sauveur, etc)
