Ogilvie Flour Mills issued these promotional "play money" notes as a marketing device — tucked into flour bags, they were redeemable or collectible depending on the campaign. The 1955 series coincided with the company's heavy postwar push into branded consumer packaging, as supermarket competition forced millers to differentiate on something other than price. Ogilvie was one of Canada's oldest continuous flour operations, incorporated in the 1880s and long headquartered in Montreal.
The $2,000 denomination is purely theatrical — a common inflation of face value in promotional scrip to create the impression of outsized reward.
