Worked example — non-registered deposits at one Manitoba credit union
| Deposit | Amount | Protected | Not protected |

| $150,000 in your own name at one Manitoba credit union | $150,000 | $150,000 | $0 |
| $300,000 in your own name at one Manitoba credit union | $300,000 | $300,000 | $0 |
Manitoba protects eligible deposits in full, so the amount doesn’t change the answer. Federal credit unions in Manitoba are covered by CDIC instead, at $100,000 per category.
Provincial rules: Manitoba — Unlimited.
