> Canada really just has the one bank

Is this supposed to be a figure of speech suggesting Canadian banks policies are so similar they are essentially the same bank? The three largest of the Big Five (RBC, TD and Scotia) are so similar in size none of them can even be said to lead the market.

Thank you for the correction, Joel.
