I recently tried to do a bank transaction.

Online, I had to enter several passwords. Eventually, I realised the transaction was not possible online (the passwords were good).

I went to the branch/succursale. The teller checked my card. The teller could not access my specific account.

The teller set a meeting with a bank advisor. I met the advisor in person.

The advisor explained that she could not do anything - I would have to phone.

So, I phoned.

On the 1-800 number, a woman with a strong accent, after asking numerous personal questions, solved half my problem.

This is very costly and wrong.

Canada used to be a society where people trusted one another.

Please understand.

My Newfoundland grandfather negotiated a deal to buy a schooner.

He hired fishermen on a handshake - they shared the catch on the Labrador coast.

I far prefer this modern world.

Were you a supporter of the trucker's Freedom Convoy, or contribute to their cause?  Trudeau seize your account?

Get over it.
Was that the most exciting thing to ever happen on your life? If it was, that is so sad LOL

You're the sensitive one with the buggered-up bank account. I asked the question.  Get over yourself.

Get a life...one that is not 3 years old LOL

about 200 people had bank account issues before the banks realized they misinterpreted and fixed it.

I did not contribute to their cause.

I generally agreed with the Trucker's Freedom Convoy.

The federal government did not seize my accounts.

My OP was about trust.

And trust me, we Canadians - unlike Lutheran Scandinavians  - have a different way to think of trust.
