Banking and poor people: talk is cheap : a report by the National Council of Welfare Ottawa - Ontario : Health Canada. 1998. 61p. : references, tables ; 28 cm. "The focus of this report is the services provided by the chartered banks, which include Canada's largest financial institutions and which are regulated by the federal government. However, many of the recommendations apply equally well to other types of financial institutions such as credit unions and trust companies.... The appendix is a case study of the Four Corners Community Savings bank in Vancouver. It is a condensed version of a study commissioned by the National Welfare and written by the Social Planning and Research Council of British Columbia. The case study echoes the concerns raised in our eyewitness account at the beginning of this report, and it shows just how difficult it is to get traditional financial institutions to provide good service in all parts of Canada."--Page 3.
