I'm not sure what the amounts total to, but you can contact your local police or the RCMP tomorrow - (depending on what it what the entire story is, it may fall into the cybercrime fraud department). If not, call your local police and ask for the fraud department. I would call for info but still go the bank collection route. (you'll probably get your cash faster)

Also, if my banking memory serves me correctly - kiting refers fraudulently getting CASH based on the float (or time it takes for cheques to clear). NSF cheques don't fall into that category *unless* he used you as a check cashing service.

In the US (according to Wikipedia) you can attempt to this to collect the funds:
