Probably about 79% amex, 20% AC, 1% misc.

I clock past ddiamond in February or March. Mostly pointless to have that split of levels.

Interesting question.

I went to the Aeroplan site and used the filter by partner function. There seem to be a few items that don't get classified to any category in particular, including SE bonus miles, so these aren't 100% correct, but they're close.

Flying with AC + partners (including any bonus etc): 36%
Amex: 44%, of which 16% MR transfer from corporate Amex and 28% personal platinum Aeroplan card
CIBC Aerogold: 18%
Hotels (Fairmont, SPG): 2%
Esso: <1%

I've just ignored the non-allocated stuff, which is about 3% of the total, since it's so small (I added the SE bonus miles to the flying stuff).

AmEx MR: 35%
TD Visa: 30%
Air Canada & partners: 20%
Delta Hotels: 15% (1,500 pts/stay as Platinum Plus)

RIP Club Sobeys program - that added about 50 extra miles every week.

Ha, probably 99% from Credit Cards (AMEX, TD recently)

It's truly NOT a FFP anymore when I don't need to fly AC to get AP miles vs. Altitude

Depends. Do I credit conversion bonuses to Aeroplan or to the program I converted from? And do I credit Altitude bonuses to Aeroplan or Air Canada?

Mostly CIBC Aerogold these days, though I need to cancel that card in the next few weeks to avoid the annual fee.

Other than that, Esso, Costco.ca, and some AC and *A travel booked through the year.
