What are the benefits for Squamish members?
A. Members would benefit from more products and services, and a credit union that can grow to meet the pace of the community. In time, Squamish members would also be able to be served at any of Vancity’s 40-plus branches, and vice-versa. Under the partnership model, Squamish members would have ‘dual membership’; that is, they would be members of Vancity while holding special partnership shares in Squamish. Squamish members would have the rights and privileges of Vancity members. At the same time, they would continue to have a say in setting the direction of the Squamish division specifically.
