Pierre Elliott Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada On'the' occasion of International Credit Union Day, I am very pleased to send my greetings to credit union members in Canada and throughout the world. Credit unions have experienced enor- mous success because they encourage both regular savings and the wise use of credit. But even more important, credit unionism encourages self help, mutual assistance, and personal involvement. In this sense credit unions are more than financial institutions, they are a positive social force within our communities. To over 38 million members of the credit union movement in many countries of the world, I send my best wishes for continued growth and prosperity.
