So, hey ...

One of Canada's biggest banks is being investigated for a huge drug money laundering scandal, including participation in US Fentanyl rings and financing terrorist groups.

I suppose Fentanyl represents Big Pharma.

Now I've heard everything.

Canada isn't necessarily the poster child for innocence and decency that it is sometimes portrayed as internationally.

There are a lot of dangerous criminals that reside in Canada as well as anywhere else...

My partner has money invested there in a mutual fund.
Stocks have already started to crash.

People will likely get screwed by higher interest rates on lending too.

A lot of people will suffer because some people at TD were more focused on short-term gains than the long-term.

He's quite diversified, but it still sucks.
I might even own a bit of them but I'm not sure.

Oh, snap! That's my bank. I guess that it's time for me to switch banks.
