Canadian banks are just horribly, terrifyingly stuck in the past for their security. For many years there was at least one Canadian bank where your online banking password was your phone password. So it had to be exactly 6 characters, and you could just as easily type in the word, or even the T-9 numbers related to them. The bank when I gave them this feedback didn't seem to understand why that was so terrible and just said, "Your money's covered if your account is hacked." Part of the reason I have the cellphone plan I do, despite knowing I'll get an esim any time I travel is so I have the option to get SMS 2FA while traveling if I need to access something.
