Can a Refugee Claimant open a bank account?

Hello!
Can a refugee claimant open a bank account if the only document they received from IRCC is Acknowledgment of claim?
Does anyone know any bank in Canada that will accept a foreign passport and an Acknowledgment of claim paper as an ID to open a chequing account?

How did it go? Did you manage to open a bank account with the Acknowledgment of claim only? If yes, which bank?
