The City Bank of Montreal (known in French as "La Banque de la Cité") was an early bank founded in Montreal in 1833,[1] when it was part of Lower Canada. It was founded as a counterpart to the Bank of Montreal, whose politically conservative directors made it difficult for leading liberals to do business in the province.[2] During its existence, it issued a number of tokens for use in trade, and is known for producing many varieties of the Bouquet sou, and for co-issuing the Habitant token along with the other leading banks of Montreal in the late 1830s. It also issued paper money.[3]

It also had branches in Toronto, and in Quebec City.[4]

City Bank merged with Royal Canadian Bank to form Consolidated Bank of Canada in 1876.
