anyone can install f-droid. also jailbreaking isn't up to Canadian companies, its up to the device manufacture allowing it and providing warranty for it (which they wont). If you want a phone like that, your best bet is buying a linux phone that is open out of the box, but no companies are canadian that produce it.

For now. Google is making sure this not an option in the near future

Good luck with your bank's app and google pay.

Fuck google. That's the point. And my bank has this cool machine by the door that does everything the app does and an actual human who I can speak to in person who can also do all the things.

You still have physical banks ?

Not only that but last time I checked you can do banking on a WEB BROWSER.
