Enhanced Banking Benefits for the Defence Community
Canadian Defence Community Banking (CDCB) Anniversary
The Canadian Defence Community Banking (CDCB) Program was created to identify and provide cost effective banking products, plans and services that meet the unique needs of Defence Community members. Through on-going collaborative efforts of BMO and dedicated Departmental staff, the CDCB program will continue to be monitored and modified to better meet the needs of the Defence Community and their families.

What other elements of the program exist?
Support Our Troops MasterCard – You earn either AIR MILES or Cash Back, and give back to the community at the same time. Based on card usage BMO contributes funds to the CF Morale and Welfare Program. These contributions, made at no expense to the user, are then used to fund Base/Wing/Unit Morale and Welfare initiatives such as the Military Family Fund. This card is available to eligible members, and also allows the general public to show support for those serving in the military.
As this is a program designed to benefit all Defence Community members, you are encouraged to visit the CDCB website at www.cdcb.ca to determine if the benefits being offered fit your needs. If, while doing so, you identify ways to further enhance the program, you are invited to contact CDCB staff at CDCB@cfpsa.com by e-mail and let them know.
