  • Credit Union Guidebook
    Retail Impact Investing A GUIDEBOOK FOR CANADIAN CREDIT UNIONS FOREWORD Impact investing has the potential to be a growth opportunity and differentiator for the Canadian credit union sector. Today, impact investment options exist primarily for institutional and accredited investors. The opportunities for everyday investors to generate a return, while generating positive impact, are limited – this, despite evidence of market interest led by millennials and others. Credit unions are well positioned to tap into this opportunity. A core part of their mission is to ensure the financial, social and environmental well-being of the communities they serve: a mission that is aligned with the principles of impact investing. We see this Guidebook as a tangible resource to help credit unions address a marketplace gap and empower members to make investments that will have demonstrable, positive impacts in their communities. The Guidebook offers credit unions of all sizes and at all stages of their social responsibility journey actionable ideas of how to create and deploy retail impact investment products for their members. The guide also points to recommendations that the credit union sector as a whole can undertake. The Canadian Credit Union Association (CCUA) is committed to working with credit unions to explore how these recommendations can be advanced. We welcome your ideas and feedback - contact us at www.impactinvesting.ca/contact. CCUA is proud to have partnered with Purpose Capital, Employment and Social Development Canada, as well as a number of interested credit unions, to develop and share the research in this Guidebook. We want to extend our gratitude to Affinity Credit Union, Alterna Savings and Credit Union, Assiniboine Credit Union, Conexus Credit Union, DUCA Financial Services Credit Union, Libro Credit Union, Mennonite Savings & Credit Union, Meridian Credit Union, Servus Credit Union and Vancity Credit Union for their support and contribution to the development of this Guidebook.

  • Private Health Facilities in Saskatchewan: Marginalization Through Legalizationi
    Canadian Political Science Review 3(4) December 2009 Private Health Facilities in Saskatchewan: Marginalization through Legalizationi Tom McIntosh and Michael Ducie (University oF ReGina)* Abstract This paper explores how the passage of Saskatchewan’s Health Facilities Licensing Act in 1996 created both a legal Framework For private health Facilities in the province as well as erectinG significant barriers to virtually insure that no such Facilities could eFFectively operate. This is done within the context oF discovering how placing barriers to privatization has contributed to reForm of the health care system and the conditions in which reForm will be permitted. Data for the study were collected from a series of eleven key informant interviews includinG elected oFFicials, civil servants, health care proFessionals, academics, members oF key stakeholder orGanizations which both supported and opposed the leGislation. Introduction One would be hard pressed to find a single issue that is more divisive within the health care debate than that of the role of private financing and private delivery of health services. But despite a number of wide-ranging provincial studies (see, for example: Quebec, 2000; Saskatchewan, 2001; Alberta, 2002), a Royal Commission (Canada, 2002a) and a Senate committee report (Canada, 2002b) in the past decade, there is also probably no single issue that is still so poorly understood by the public, stakeholders and governments. The recent Supreme Court decision that found Quebec’s ban on the purchase of private insurance for services already insured under provincial insurance to be a violation of the Quebec Charter of Rights has reignited the debate in important ways while also doing little to clarify some of the key issues that are stake (Marchildon, 2005; Flood et al., 2005; McIntosh, 2006; Premont, 2007).
