Penntrade allows Yanks direct trades on the Canadian markets. $29.95. I think they go through Canaccord. I use them a lot.

Have used Penntrade for many yrs, find them excellent.

But Canadian stock sales have to be converted to USD, then converted again
to buy Canadian, double expense.

There may be brokers that can leave cash in C$ and save on that.

I live in the US and us IB to trade CAN and US stocks. I find them excellent in transactions and reporting but lacking in RT charting, vol levels (data), customer service and wrt trading.

I considered PennTrade, as it was highly reco'ed by many here, but it was not licensed in my state.

IB commissions are excellent.

Hope this helps.

I've had an IB account for several years and I like the quick Canadian stock trading and also the rare occasion when I might want to trade a Canadian during a US holiday.

IB has never once sent me my annual reports or proxy statements. I can't believe that's even legal, I think they just get away with it. My 20,000 or so votes might not make a bit of difference but I am a shareholder and that's my right.
