Is there anyway we can have a page with all current Canadian credit card offers all in one post? Like the US Thread?

Just seems like a convenient post to have on a thread like this?

It's in the wiki up top

Anyone have experience with this?

If you happen to see the Free First Year offer again, please post, I'd like to get one. Thanks.

Rewards Canada (and possibly others) point out this 60,000 point offer for Best Western Rewards MasterCard. $2000 spend required.

60,000 points can be redeemed for 12,000 Aeroplan miles. My preference is to convert to gift cards, though.

Seems like a great deal to me.

TD Visa Aeroplan Infinite is 15k points + 5K for authorized user ($50) with FYF. I fell asleep at the switch and didn't go for the 25k point offer FYF that recently expired. Not desperate for Aeroplan points right now so will skip the most recent offer.

Why gift cards? Waste IMO.

60K is 2 hotel nights in nice hotels in Europe

There is a slightly better offer here:

That's why I said it's my preference, not my advice for everyone.
Yes, if you're looking to stay 2 nights in Europe, yours is probably a better deal.

Many points blogs talk about this card, and many recommend converting to Aeroplan points.

60,000 points = US $250, or about C $330, in Best Western gift cards.

Working link requires you to log into your Marriott account

They forgot to update/close the FRENCH version of the 50K offer, (or they want to attract more customers from Quebec?) :

https://lp34.marriottpremier.ca/fr

Note: you can switch language back to English in the application form.

Think they will still award 50K points ? I applied and got instant approval..let's see. If you apply, make sure to take screenshots!

Merci!

Anyone care to pipe in on success of churning this card, let's say, at 6 months since cancelling last card?
