got the new Scotiabank Momentum Mastercard in the mail today, but I never applied the card, hence, initially was a bit worry. After checking, it has the same account number as our Chase Sears Mastercard. Login to online.chasecanada.ca and the Sears had change to Scotiabank. According to the info listed with the new card, it will still be no FX and no annual fee. So, look like I don't need to apply the Rogers MC or Amazon Visa after-all.
but this is a very bad cash card, 1% on Gas / Grocery / DrugStore & Recurring Payments, then 0.5% on anything else. So, definitely not using it unless I am outside of Canada.

Since Scotia does not have any MC before, they are just rebanding the Chase Sears card for now. Once they complete the transition, they may start offering this card to the general public. Or they will follow what others like CIBC had done in the past where they will just start offering new MC card but not this particular no FX card. I guess we all just need to wait and see.

Applied for the CIBC Aeroplan Visa via online. Got a letter in the mail declining my application. I called in to verify the reason and the agent told me I needed a credit score of 750. My credit score is 710 with several credit card signups in the past 2 months. I was quite shocked to be rejected.
