Get ready....the fun is about to begin. More and more tout letters are giving this advice to clients....here comes the American wave...you aint seen nussing yet

"TD Ameritrade offers online trading in Toronto-listed stocks similarly to Fidelity. You use the 5-letter US OTC symbol to place the order, and the trade is automatically routed through a Canadian broker to be placed directly on the Toronto exchange. At TD Ameritrade, the commission is the same as for any online trade. If you cannot find a 5-letter OTC symbol for the stock, you must call a broker for assistance.

"Of course, if you use a limit order, you have to first check the current price in Canadian dollars (which you can look up on the TSX website), and then do a currency conversion, because the limit price you specify is in US dollars. If you're interested in knowing the price at which your trade is executed in Canadian dollars, you can look it up on TSX using the Canadian ticker symbol; the most recent 10 trades for a stock are listed, delayed about 20 minutes.

"Two other online brokers that offer Canadian trading are PennTrade and Interactive Brokers. With PennTrade, you can place a limit order in either US or Canadian dollars. Beginning in July, E*Trade will offer online trading in six foreign markets, including Canada. Man Securities also offers global trading, but not online.

"Another option is to use a full-service broker who specializes in natural resource stocks, such as Global Resource Investments or First Securities Northwest
