 Economic Research at the Bank of Canada, 1935-65 - Research - Publications and Research - Bank of Canada
By way of illustrating this, ex-Governor Gerald Bouey has pointed out that Bank rate was set at 2.5 percent in 1935, was lowered to 1.5 percent in 1944, then raised in 1950 to 2 percent, where it remained until 1955.
Robert Johnstone, who had joined the Research Department in 1957, was seconded to the commission staff, and the preparation of the Bank's own submission to the commission preoccupied a number of other researchers, including notably Gerald Bouey and George Freeman, and ex-department-members Robert Beattie (senior deputy governor) and William Lawson (executive assistant to the governors).
In its submission, the Bank concluded that its main impact on the economy came through its ability to influence variations in credit conditions—in the difficulty, expense, and risk of borrowing, and in the counterpart attractiveness of acquiring and holding various kinds of financial assets.

Bouey continued to identify inflation control as a key objective for monetary policy, but oversaw monetary conditions that accommodated economic expansion.
From 1983 to 1988, roughly the period of the first political mandate of the Mulroney government and the last part of Gerald Bouey's second term as governor of the Bank of Canada, Canadian economic growth was much stronger than that in other G7 countries.
The intent was apparently to implement a policy consistent with non-inflationary recovery from the recession (Bouey, 1985: 24).

 Notes on "Shooting the Hippo" by Linda McQuaig, 1996
Until the 1970s Keynesian economics worked well.  There was a trade-off: higher unemployment meant lower inflation, and vice versa.  Later there would be both high unemployment and high inflation.
In an attempt to reduce inflation The Federal Reserve (U.S.) jacked up the interest rate to 14.9 percent by February 1980.  Following the U.S. lead Bank of Canada president Gerald Bouey cranked up Canada's prime interest rate to 22.5 percent in the summer of 1981.
The `recession method' of inflation control was to become the supreme law of the land, and part of the Mulroney government's political agenda.

 [No title]
Most people will recall that Bank of Canada Governor Gerald Bouey introduced monetary targeting to the Canadian scene in 1975, picking M1 - currency plus noninterest bearing chequing accounts - as the money supply that mattered.
In the early years of setting ranges for M1 growth, the money supply came in more or less on target, and its relationship with total spending in the economy remained more or less predictable.
Despite assurances at the time, it has shown no signs of returning to the practice: Bouey's annual report, issued last month, makes no mention of targets.

According to the Charlton's, Gerald Bouey was the Deputy Governor of the BofC from January 1, 1972 to February 1, 1973, after which he became the Governor.
So I'm assuming that the BoC printed a decent stockpile during the Beattie/Rasminsky period, then by the time they ran out and initiated a second print run, the officers had changed again to Lawson/Bouey.
But I can't imagine there having been a large enough inventory of 1969 Beatty-Rasminsky 20's on hand to cover the entire year of 1972 and then some.
