The Bank of Ottawa was a mid-tier chartered bank operating under the Bank Act of 1871, and this note predates the Dominion's consolidation of charter banking that would eventually sweep away dozens of smaller regional institutions. The American Bank Note Company held printing contracts for a large number of Canadian chartered banks during this period, producing work in New York for institutions that often had no practical means to verify or audit the printing process themselves — a source of periodic anxiety for bank directors of the era.
The Bank of Ottawa survived until 1919, when it was absorbed by the Canadian Bank of Commerce.
