The Quebec Bank was a Montreal-based chartered bank that operated from 1818 until its absorption by the Royal Bank of Canada in 1917. By 1908, the Canadian chartered bank note system was already living on borrowed time — the 1914 Finance Act and subsequent revisions would steadily displace private bank currency in favor of Dominion notes — making this a late-period issue from an institution with fewer than a decade left.
The American Bank Note Company maintained a facility in Ottawa, where this note was produced. That Ottawa plant handled a substantial share of Canadian chartered bank work in the early twentieth century, distinct from ABNC's main New York operations.
