A former Bank of Canada employee is facing up to 20 years in prison after being charged by the FBI with distribution of child pornography.

Matthew Norman Ballek, 31, of Saskatchewan, was arrested Feb. 7. He is accused of “distributing three video files depicting adult males engaging in sexually explicit conduct with minors via a social media communication application,” the FBI said in a news release.
