| Comments |
Barclays Bank (Canada) was a short-lived subsidiary of Barclays Bank Limited, established primarily to absorb the Canadian branches of the Colonial Bank following Barclays' 1925 merger with Colonial, National Bank of South Africa, and Anglo-Egyptian Bank. The Canadian operation never built a significant retail footprint and was wound down relatively quickly, which kept total note issuance low.
Three signature combinations are recorded for this single date — Bruce/Borden, Dickenson/Borden, and Stevenson/Borden — reflecting staff turnover during what was already a brief operational window. R. L. Borden's consistent presence across all three variants suggests a fixed senior signing authority against a rotating counter-signatory.
