Quebec Bank
Canadian bank (1818–1918)
The Quebec Bank was founded on June 9, 1818 to meet a perceived need by some merchants and residents of Quebec City. They wanted an alternative to the newly founded Bank of Montreal which they felt was inadequate for the needs of the province. The bank was incorporated in 1822 in Quebec City and made good progress until the great revulsion of 1826–7.2 Wikipedia text CC BY-SA 4.0
