In 1936, the Alberta Social Credit Party-led government of the Province of Alberta, Canada, introduced prosperity certificates in an attempt to alleviate the effects of the Great Depression. Although not technically money, each certificate was intended to circulate with a value of one dollar. Every week the holder of a note had to affix a one-cent stamp to the back to maintain its validity. The intended effect was to increase the velocity of circulation and discourage hoarding.
