The Bank of Toronto, founded in 1855 to serve the grain and flour trade around Lake Ontario, was a mid-sized chartered bank that survived long enough to merge with the Dominion Bank in 1955, forming Toronto-Dominion. This $20 note spans an unusually long issue window — over four decades — reflecting how Canadian chartered banks of the period retained authorization to circulate their own notes under the Bank Act, with denominations above $5 subject to a note circulation tax introduced in 1891.
The American Bank Note Company's New York facilities handled printing for a substantial portion of Canada's chartered banking sector during this period, as no domestic security printer of comparable capability existed in Canada until well into the twentieth century.
