I see.
With your permission, Mr. Anderson, I will correct one of the statistics you cited.
According to testimony we have heard, 60% of respondents feel it is a bad idea to provide banking services in post offices, whereas 38% think the potential in that area is good. Of that 38%, 7% said they might use banking services in post offices, and only 2.7% of respondents indicated they intended to use those services if they were offered. Consequently, the percentage of interested respondents is much less than 7%. Furthermore, to provide banking services in its post offices, Canada Post will have to make enormous structural and IT investments. A bank is much more than buildings and employees.
Do you think 60% of Canadians are opposed to the idea that Canada Post should take this kind of financial risk to maintain its financial sustainability?
