The Canadian Bank of Commerce was one of the last private chartered banks still issuing its own currency under the Bank Act, a practice the Dominion government steadily curtailed through the 1920s before eliminating it entirely by 1945. This 1922 issue appeared just as Ottawa was tightening the screws on chartered bank circulation — the Finance Act of 1914 had already shifted real monetary control toward the government, leaving high-denomination chartered bank notes increasingly anachronistic instruments.
The American Bank Note Company's Ottawa facility handled production, the same plant responsible for much of Canada's chartered banking paper in this period. At the $100 level, circulation was thin — these moved between businesses and clearing houses, not pockets.
