Strangest thing happened. One of my banks, BMO HarrishD been a non-player from the get go. Many customer requests occurred since Apple Pay started but they said no. Last week a news item said Canadian Banks will be on board by the end of the year. Last weekend, I did my Google search and this time found a PDF from the bank (parent company is in Canada). It worked. And my bank isn't on the above list either. The point I am trying to make is if you have been waiting, the list isn't perfect so keep trying to make it work.
