Now our winter holiday is out as my wife is due to give birth around New Year's. If she cancels the card this fall, what are the odds that she can cancel, sign up again and get the bonus? Or could I sign up and just use her AM number? (I currently have the BMO World Elite MC, but have never had the BMO AM card... other than this one card, I am not that familiar with BMO and its CC practices.)

I'd be grateful to hear anyone's experiences with this... what I read could affect my strategy for accumulating Air Miles
I'd think it's churnable as long as there's no "no repeat welcome bonus" clause like the BMO World Elite ($300 bonus)

For AM, I'd recommend churning AMEX Air Miles Platinum instead
2000 AM after $500, FYF. I think GCR gives $30 cashback now? unless you use a referral (500 AM referral bonus)

You can each get one by referring each other, repeat-and-rinse
