Why would they be dropping their 1yr rate when we're all waiting for the uptick due to the recent .5% BOC increase?

The usual reason from any FI: They don't need to pay more for the funds (deposits) they want to attract.

Perhaps, one-year GIC money was flowing in a bit faster than Equitable Bank could lend it out.

Banks really don't care about what their GIC rates are in relation to the short term Bank of Canada overnight rates.
