Dear Qorax,

Thanks for your Master thread on Banking in Canada. But the only issue is that it dates back to Feb 2010 and since then many changes have happened.

What i have come to know is that "Presidents Choice Financial" is at the moment Canada's #1 in terms of offering "No Fee Unlimited Chequing Account" as it offers Canadians, the best no fee chequing account option among many other great banking products.

PC Financial was formed in partnership with CIBC and Loblaws Superstores. Primarily an online bank at first, PC Financial has grown and customers are able to access all CIBC bank machines for deposits, withdrawals and bill payments absolutely free. You can also get extended banking services at Kiosks located in most Loblaws Superstores across Canada or bank online. The best part about the PC Financial no fee chequing account is that you get a built in loyalty program to redeem PC Points for groceries at Loblaws stores, earn interest on your chequing account balances and receive free cheque books. The PC Financial chequing account allows for unlimited transactions online or at CIBC machines with no monthly fee.

All i want now is if somebody can kindly confirm all the above to me and let us know whether this stands true and correct to this date and period.

Thanks in advance

Dear Seniors,

If we transfer money from our respective countries to a bank account in Canada, is this transaction taxable.

If yes, then why and to what extent.

Thanks in advance !!

PC Financial is not a bank. Thus, there'd be many things that u'd've trouble with, which wouldn't be with a conventional bank. Else, ur info on the "no fee" a/c is perfectly correct.

Thanks Coolguy... I already have bank account with SCB, which is present in Cananda. What if I keep that bank and transfer funds from scb dubai to scb canada and then after landing close scb and open account with good bank there? Will there be any additional charges/other losses involved?
