Canada has had a similar system for quite some time. While Canadians still can obtain a preimum chequing account which will return their cancelled
cheques to them, all corporate accounts have their cheques returned. But that is just the aside to your change. issued cheques will clear your account
much faster now as they are processed electronically. For some that is not good news, but on the bright side, funds from cheques deposited into your
account barring collection requirements, should also be available sooner.
I like the system here in Canada, and it has been 11 years since I last had to review a physical cheque.
