American money, also British and Frenchand some Span- ish and Portuguese, was used—all subject to $uctuating rates of exchange and causing monetary confusion. There was no Canadian money, either coin or paper. But in 1817, when the Bank of Montreal was starred, its directors—merchants who knew what Canadian business urgently needed—immediately provided a paper currency (the Bank's own bills in small denominations) and later copper coins. These Bank of Montreal issues were the first real Canadian Money. Through 11,7 years since when the Basle of Montreal's notes have performed auseful IIisncri+on,es Canadian busi- ness has grown from small beg}aminfs ro its present ex- tensive proportions. These notes have provided a sound, dependable and elastic currency; their volume automati- cally expand.•ngand'oonttattingnithe e rbaflimgdemands of trade Notes of the Bank now in atm/mien amoaent to $35,000,000, oz about one-fourth erf the .entire com- mercial bank note currency. of Canada - The Banks resources ($759;e88,000) are Likewise about one-fourth of the total resosrcesofthe Canadian commer- cial banks. These figures indicate the extent to which the Bank of Montreal participates. in Csnadianbusiness activity. ESTABLISHED 1817' HEAD OFFICE • • MONTREAI.
