That 8 isn't, is due in large measure to Phe services rendered by your bunk. • When you buy imported goods in Canadian stores, you pay in Canadian dollars—but the people who made them were paid in Indian rupees, British pounds, French francs. • it is the same in reverse with exports. You may be one of the three out of every eight Canadians who make their living through goods sold abroad. If so, you receive your wages in dollars, but your prod- ucts are sold in all sorts of foreign currencies. • Arranging the complicated exchange and transfer of foreign funds • in such transactions is but one of your bank's many services enabling • Canadians to buy and sell abroad.
