Given the stupid Canadian rule about every order having to be viewed by a human, 30 seconds is hard to achieve in this country.

Actually this rule has prevented one stupid Canadian (me) from making an expensive boo-boo, not once but a couple of times. Once I somehow left out the decimal point in a limit price, and on the other occasion I had an extra zero in the quantity box. Each time someone called (from CT Securities) and asked " Are you sure this is what you mean?". So the rule may be an irritant, but for air heads like me, it can be a lifesaver.
