On and off for the past year or so, the commercials from TD Bank have been

as they've slowly laid off people due to the AML fines they've been dealing with in the U.S. and replacing folks with either AI, more Indian/Canadian/Ireland talent.



You can't really complain that the Toronto Dominion Bank is hiring Canadians.


Given the structure and size of the organization, I can. For every 2 or more folks that lose a job on the U.S side, they may hire one person, or none. And, as I understand it, with the disparity in exchange rates and currency and such, Canadians are getting shafted financially and make anywhere from .25 to .50 less compared to U.S. talent. They are being pushed (forced?) to RTO for no reason beyond 'real estate has to go up/we invested in TD tower'.


It's a Canadian company, its entirely natural they prioritize Canadians, it's not outsourcing.
