Changements sur "G21-P007 Créer un accès aux services bancaires dans les points de vente de Postes Canada"

- John Turnbull et Tom Mitchell
- Proposition
- -----------
- Le PVC créera une banque d'épargne gouvernementale exploitée par Postes Canada qui offrira des
- services sans frais aux titulaires de comptes dans toutes les succursales postales. Les recettes de
- la banque permettront aux communautés de s'autonomiser en finançant des projets environnementaux et
- sociaux communautaires contrôlés démocratiquement et qui ne sont généralement pas financés par les
- banques commerciales.
- Objectif
- --------
- Créer une banque d'épargne postale de propriété publique pour :
- * Offrir des services financiers abordables à la population par l'intermédiaire des bureaux de
- poste, en particulier ceux des petites communautés éloignées qui ne sont pas actuellement desservies
- par les banques commerciales ;
- * Fournir aux gouvernements locaux un financement pour d'importants projets d'ordre social,
- environnemental et économique qui ne sont pas couramment financés par les banques commerciales ; et
- * Relier la population à son gouvernement fédéral dans le cadre d'un contrat social qui donne la
- priorité à l'intérêt public des collectivités.
- Avantage
- --------
- Les banques privées déréglementées excluent financièrement de nombreuses personnes tout en endettant
- le gouvernement et la majorité de la population. Elle ne finance pas non plus les priorités
- sociales, économiques et écologiques importantes. Une caisse d'épargne postale soutiendra les
- services bancaires d'utilité publique. C'est la forme de banque dont nous avons besoin pour répondre
- à nos urgences économiques, sociales et environnementales.

- Les caisses d'épargne postales sont courantes dans certains pays, notamment en Autriche, en France,
- en Allemagne, en Italie, en Nouvelle-Zélande et en Corée. Ces dernières années, la banque d'épargne
- postale du Japon a parfois été la plus grande banque d'épargne du monde.

- John Turnbull and Tom Mitchell
- Proposal
- --------
- The GPC will create a government-owned savings bank operated by Canada Post that will offer fee-less
- services to account holders at all post office branches. Bank proceeds will empower communities
- through the financing of democratically controlled, community environmental and social projects not
- commonly funded by commercial banks.
- Objective
- ---------
- To create a publicly-owned, postal savings bank to:
- * extend affordable financial services to Canadians through post offices, in particular those in
- small and remote communities not currently served by the commercial banks;
- * provide local governments financing for important projects of social, environmental and economic
- significance that are not commonly financed by commercial banks; and
- * connect Canadians with their federal government in a social contract that prioritizes the public
- interest of communities.
- Benefit
- -------
- Deregulated private banking financially excludes many while burdening the government and most
- Canadians in debt. It also fails to finance important social, economic and ecological priorities. A
- postal savings bank will support public utility banking. This is the form of banking we need to
- address our economic, social and environmental emergencies.
- Supporting Comments from Submitter
- ----------------------------------
- Postal savings banks are common in other countries, including Austria, France, Germany, Italy, New
- Zealand and Korea. Japan's postal savings bank has at times in recent years been the largest savings
- bank in the world.

- Proposal
- --------
- The GPC will create a government-owned savings bank operated by Canada Post that will offer fee-less
- services to account holders at all post office branches. Bank proceeds will empower communities
- through the financing of democratically controlled, community environmental and social projects not
- commonly funded by commercial banks.
- Objective
- ---------
- To create a publicly-owned, postal savings bank to:
- * extend affordable financial services to Canadians through post offices, in particular those in
- small and remote communities not currently served by the commercial banks;
- * provide local governments financing for important projects of social, environmental and economic
- significance that are not commonly financed by commercial banks; and
- * connect Canadians with their federal government in a social contract that prioritizes the public
- interest of communities.
- Benefit
- -------
- Deregulated private banking financially excludes many while burdening the government and most
- Canadians in debt. It also fails to finance important social, economic and ecological priorities. A
- postal savings bank will support public utility banking. This is the form of banking we need to
- address our economic, social and environmental emergencies.
- Supporting Comments from Submitter
- ----------------------------------
- Postal savings banks are common in other countries, including Austria, France, Germany, Italy, New
- Zealand and Korea. Japan's postal savings bank has at times in recent years been the largest savings
- bank in the world.
