Manitoba Backs Feasibility of New Provincial Bank
Manitoba proposes a new chartered bank modeled on the Bank of British Columbia. Industry Minister Leonard Evans says the NDP government would assist entrepreneurs with organization and potential loan capital. The study notes potential competition to existing banks, aims to spur Manitoba growth, and envisions possible Western Canadian cooperation with Saskatchewan and Alberta. The province could own up to 20 percent, needing about 10 million dollars in capital, while vows not to directly vote stock.
