Manitoba Business: Dominion Bank

This bank, founded at Toronto in 1871, merged with the Bank of Toronto in 1955 to form the Toronto-Dominion (TD) Bank.

Some employees of the bank who were killed during service in the First World War were commemorated at a 61st Battalion concert held at the Walker Theatre on 13-14 December 1915.
