And full of fresh thinking. . It‘s the reason we introduced you to Canada’s first Daily Interest Savings Account and the first international network of Automatic Teller Machines. _ It's the reason we discovered a way to approve your mortgage on Sunday. . , It's also the reason we were the first to offer both Registered Education Plans and the Ethical Growth Fund for the principled investor. Today, we're saving you a trip to the branch with one of the most comprehensive telephone services anywhere. Perhaps that’s why we've grown to 24 branches, 180,000 members, with over $3 billion in assets and a Triple “A” Bond Rating. Like we've always said, it pays to listen.
