You have to spend $3000 in the first three months, so you'll end up with at least 28 000 Aeroplan miles for free. Just to "kick it up a notch", apply through the link on greatcanadianrebates.ca and receive a $65 rebate once your application has been approved.

Good tip^.. The $65 rebate is a new kicker. We applied for the personal gold cards.. but the business gold card we're taking a close look.

Currently have the AeroplanPlus Gold Card.
Should I change over to the new Gold rewards card?

you should double check with AMEX to see if you would receive the bonus miles..
