[GNC] Trouble downloading OFX from Canadian Tire Bank

[R. Victor Klassen]

I did succeed in building once - I’m not sure how hard it will be to reproduce that success.  

The latest stable build is late September (which is what I’m running).   I don’t recall how long until the next release.  I was able to pull in the file using csv.
