TORONTO — Scotiabank's head of Canadian banking is leaving after a 25-year career at the financial institution.

Scott Thomson, president and CEO, thanked Rees for his work at Scotiabank, noting that under his leadership, the bank launched its loyalty program Scene+. 

Rees will be replaced effective Friday by Aris Bogdaneris.
