Basically so far a bunch of Wall Street Assholes join a Canadian bank and are pissy that it's not the corporate culture they're used to:
"It was as if a tribe of 1980's Wall Street alpha males had stumbled upon a time machine and as a prank identified the most mild-mannered, well-behaved province in Canada and teleported themselves into it."
You are very unfamiliar with Canada if you think Ontario is the mild one

This book is making me wince so much. I usually find it entertaining when Americans try to describe Canada/Canadians. They're either hilariously on the nose or totally off base. There's never an in-between.
But Lewis is an abrasive guy to start with and it's mostly just cringey. Such gems as:
"A Canadian from Canada."
"Toronto is a foreign country"
