I could be wrong but believe the government has put restrictions on banks during pandemic where the banks could not raise dividends or do a stock split.

You are spot on, OSFI has stopped dividend increases, share buybacks and increases in Executive copmpensation. They have also just recently said they are in no rush to lift these restrictions, despite the Banks beign flush with money and way over their regualtory Capital limits. That is why so many are looking at acquisitions.
