Section 60.2 of the FAA is considering extraordinary measures. The financial sector's framework as a whole—including CDIC's powers, but also looking at the Bank of Canada and the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions—is sufficient for the normal course of business. Section 60.2 is deemed for extraordinary use, where the minister deems it necessary to promote financial stability or to maintain market efficiency.
An example of that would be an unlikely event where there is a large Canadian bank that would be failing. Paying out deposits on a large Canadian bank would likely exceed CDIC's borrowing limit. The funds needed to help provide some sort of liquidity assistance to that bank to help make sure it does not fail may surpass CDIC's current borrowing limit. The minister may determine that it's in the better interest of the efficiency of the Canadian financial system, or for financial stability, to lend CDIC that additional money.
