Thank you, Chair.
Thank you, Mr. Anderson, for your attendance and your contribution to this study.
I have a couple of questions. I may not use all of my five minutes, but I'm going to read all the questions out to you and give you as much time as possible for your response.
I'm curious as to how the post office itself would compete with large Canadian banks across the country that already have the infrastructure and the name recognition and are well established. That's one question.
Would the new postal banking service rely on public funding? If the post office were offering loans while it is losing $750 million a year, what funds would it be relying on to fund those loans?
Lastly, how much would it cost to set up the infrastructure required for postal banking?
