Your right io keep your private affairs private is a cherished principle of Canadian banking; Next time you are in your bank, notice bow many people keep their cheques face down . 4 . just like you . . . while they make out their deposit slips. Notice how they close their passbooks before handing them in— and get them back closed too. Canadian bank service is recognized by everyone as confidential. Every employee, when he came into the service of your bank, took a solemn declaration of secrecy. Your relationship with your bank is the most vitally confidential business relation­ ship you have.

State monopoly of banking, proposed by socialists here, would open ybVr banking transactions to political intrusion.
