I have a US Borderless account at Canada Trust, which includes free money
orders for $4.95 a month.  (They charge $3.50 otherwise, same as the post
office.)  I just did a quick look around to see what the other banks • charge -
not easy to find!  The only other account I saw to include them was a $20 • one
at the Royal; the only other individual fee I saw was $5 at CIBC.  Anyone • else
have more info?  I'll compile it, if you send it to me.


My Scotiabank Value(I think) Account costs me $9.95 per month saves me $5.00
a pop on $US money orders which I figure I break even on money orders alone.

Thanks.  (BTW, I think your fees have gone up!)  I can't find a reference for
the $5 per MO, though - do you know the URL?

Here's the list of what I know so far.
