Canadian Community Reinvestment Coalition

The Canadian Community Reinvestment Coalition (CCRC) is a nonprofit, nonpartisan coalition comprising 100 anti-poverty, consumer, community economic development, labor, and small business groups, representing over three million Canadians across all provinces and the Northwest Territories. Since its inception in 1996, the CCRC has advocated for bank accountability in Canada, successfully campaigning to halt proposed bank mergers and prompting banks to lower service charges, resulting in significant savings for Canadians.

Through its efforts, the CCRC has achieved various key changes in banking practices, saving Canadians more than $9 billion from 1997 to 2012. The coalition continues to push for reforms to ensure that financial institutions serve Canadians fairly and responsibly, emphasizing the need for better banks rather than bigger banks.
