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
Yeah, I've been alternating back and forth with the Amex Air Miles Plat/Gold for the last year or so.

The nice thing about the BMO World AM MC is that you also get a 25% discount off redemptions in addition to the 2000 AMs for signing up, so for a family redemption it makes quite a difference. Although I do recall reading that the card was recently "enhanced" so as to make the 25% discount apply only to NA redemptions... obviously a huge hit to any hardcore AM collectors who were planning family trips overseas.
