They misinterpreted it.

We are gonna need a bigger mattress.
Creditors is used. If I deposit money into a bank I am one of the bank’s creditors. I lent them money and I expect it back along with interest payments.
Stuffing it with cash that can be cancelled in a crisis won’t do any good. I’d suggest to have at least some silver and gold on hand for a ‘just in case’.
No, you and others with an agenda have misinterpreted it, either out of ignorance or intent.
I found too many errors on zerohedge to believe anything they say anymore. I stopped looking at their links months ago.
Got another?
Keep telling yourself whatever makes you happy.

From the comment section of your link ...
It says “convert long term debt” unless you have multi year CDs, your deposits are all short term. Most people would classify in short term even if depositors equaled creditors
He provides text to support his statement but the text does not reference deposits.
The bank “borrows” money from depositors, the deposits are liabilities with, under this scenario, them being unsecured creditors.
Depositors have always been creditors. Nothing new under recent clarifications/warnings.
Just because multiple propagandists repeat the same lie doesn’t make their story true.
"Under this approach, CDIC would be appointed as the receiver of the non-viable bank and would determine which of the banks assets and liabilities should be passed to the bridge institution (including, at a minimum, all insured deposits)"

I've found that a quick search ALWAYS discredits the paranoid claims of zerohedge. Thanks for helping me affirm my opinion of them.
Whenever I see an outrageous thread title on FR, but then see zerohedge as the source, I skip it.
I recommend the same for you.
Nope.
Depositor accounts are assets. They are not creditors.
Creditors to a bank are typically other banks.
E.g., that’s what the LIBOR rate is, the short term rate at which banks loan money to each other.
They are nuts !
My guess is the use of personal security contractors will rise for any bankster in Canada.
I could get onboard with this policy, IF any sort of comprehensible information was available to average depositors so that they could shop around for the banks least likely to fail.
