A minor footnote to this saga re: what CIBC is.  In Canada there are something
like 5 or 7 bank corporations nation-wide. Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce 
is one of them, so it is hardly the small bank that was suggested in one post.

Canadian banks are considerably less customer driven than those
in the U.S. to the extent that several years ago parlimentary hearings found
horror stories like children's christmas club accts being depleted by monthly
fees, 20% fees to change a $20 bill into quarters (for laundry), and others.
Since then they've lightened up a bit, but it still takes 2 pieces of ID to
_deposit_ money at a branch office other than your regular one.

Likewise their credit cards are not too helpful when trying to get your money
back. I still think the guy in question should write to the President of the
bank and complain. It _might_ get some action.
