I'm just glad I do most of my banking at a credit union. I dumped BofA about 15 years ago, and would never do business with Wells Fargo (my mom, as an ex-bookkeeper, closed her accounts when Wells Fargo took over the local Barclays branches).
I think the credit unions will be the only thing left standing. The Savings & Loans are gone (in the previous scandal, but that may not have been so newsworthy in Canada). The banks got too greedy. The credit unions are often unprofessionally run, but they're not inherently evil or grasping.
