TORONTO — A long-promised revolution in banking is headedto Canada, but you might not notice when it arrives.

“Typically, when I see consumers and people talking about it, it's clear to me that it's not well understood,” said Sale. The current lack of competition in banking means high fees, which a report out last month from North Economics estimated run upwards of $7.7 billion a year.
