The doors of the CIBC branch in Ignace are closing.
Communications and Public Affairs Senior Manager Jon Kastikainen confirms the bank will be closing on July 8th.
He says they took a very careful look at the decision, but notes they have seen declining business in recent years.
Kastikainen says they will be transitioning their clients to the CIBC branch in Dryden and will be helping them adjust to the growing practice of banking online or by phone.
He stresses staff in Ignace will be readily available to assist individual clients.
CIBC will be holding a community meeting on March 29th to answer any questions.
