keith - Lets face it - they dont offer it because most of them have their heads up their asses. They just dont know any better. One other consideration is that there just may not be enough of us to make it economical. And why would any US trading service bother with the limited potential.

But why not keep your CSW market depth and go with something like ETrade US which will allow you to trade on the TSE as well. (Well other than the fact that their software has been crashing as of late heh). SureTrade is another one in the US. Sucky phone service, sucky website but it's only $7.95 for a trade and they get filled reasonably fast. No TSE trading through them though. I sat down and calculated it out and I would have spent about 2% of my current commissions if I had gone with one of these US brokerages. Given how much I'm paying for commissions, it adds up real fast. I'm currently with TD greenline.
