Exactly. Most of the major western regional bank offices were in Winnipeg for much of the 1900's before they moved to Calgary. I am sure that if market conditions dictated it, they might decide to move again, or consolidate offices elsewhere.
Certainly banks should never be considered anything but "fair weather" businesses...
Winnipeg already learned that lesson.
