I believe IB is the only one that has a "Canadian" Division

But it doesn't matter just open an account with any US broker.

You can't open an account with a US futures broker if your not an american.

Thats my understanding.

I strongly recommand IB.. they have a division based out of montreal!

Well, IB USA doesn't allow Canadians anyways - I've asked a couple times.
One big reason I wanted that, as just above, there's no portfolio margin at IB CAN. That would be nice to have.
So, what brokers accepts Canadians? Just wondering since I would probably use IB anyways.

IB is the only potable way to go in Canada.
