I think one interesting thing that the article does mention is that Walmart does accept Apple Pay and contactless payments in Canada. I suspect this is because Canadians pretty much expect contactless to be accepted anywhere they shop, compared to in America where there are still many places (restaurants mostly) that have limited support for it.

I don’t see many places without contactless support anymore. Most times I get told they don’t support contactless, they actually do but are simply unaware of it. PCI requires businesses to use modern card readers, and most new card readers take contactless payments.
Eh, I expect anything where I don’t hand over my card is Apple Pay.
