When I shopped around (over a year ago now) Canada Trust had the best
package available. Aside from the (relatively) low service charge, their
hours made a big difference (A bank open later than 5 PM is a *good* thing).
What really cinched it for me though, was that it's a US dollar account. My
life is worlds happier not having to deal with/pay conversion rates all the
time.
