Let's not go over the top. Are your Regional Settings set for Canada?
That does make a difference.

Here are some banks that are listed in Money:

This list was produced by looking at the Microsoft Money Online Financial
listings (http://www.microsoft.com/money/online/FIList.asp?FIList=5) and by
looking at major Canadian financial institution websites. This is not a
complete listing by any stretch of the imagination. Consult your financial
institution's website to determine if they work with Microsoft Money.

Money categories it's services into the following 3 methods:
- Certified financial institutions have been certified to ensure that
their Direct or Web services are compatible with Microsoft Money.
- Direct Services (2-Way) is the fastest, easiest way to connect with your
financial institution and have your statements automatically downloaded
into Money directly from your financial institution.
- Web Services (1-Way) allow you to download your statements into Money by
accessing your financial institution's web site and then clicking "Download
to Money".

No Canadian financial institutions that I know of provides 2-way direct
financial banking like those offered in the U.S. They allow only for the
downloading of account details. Why this is, you have to ask your
financial institution.

Money Certified:
- American Express Canada (Certified/Web Services)
- Bank of Montreal (Web Services, it's listed under mbanx but goes to the
main BMO website)
- CIBC (English/Francaise) (Web Services)
- Citibank Canada (Certified/Web Services)
- HEPCOE CCU
- Investors Group - Solutions Bank (English/French)
- Laurentian Bank/Banque Laurentienne du Canada (Certified/Web Services)
- National Bank of Canada/Banque Nationale du Canada (Web Services)
- President's Choice Financial (Certified/Web Services)
- St. Willibrord CCU
- TD CanadaTrust/TD Bank (Web Services)

Allow for downloading of account details:
- Citizens Bank of Canada
- HSBC Canada
- Manulife Bank of Canada
- Scotiabank
- Royal Bank of Canada

Questionable:
- ING Direct (on the Money list, the link directs us to the site but the
site doesn't mention PFM programs anywhere)
