I am a Canadian, and I want to start selling items on Ebay. I have a Paypal account set up to start accepting payments, but I would like to be able to accept Billpoint as well. It seems as though they do not accept Canadian bank accounts.
Does anyone have any recommendations for US banks that I can open an account from here in Canada, and that I can easily transfer money to other accounts in other banks?

Have you tried getting an account at an American bank in Toronto, perhaps the Bank of America?
I know in the states I see Canadian banks in the major cities. And I know American banks are all over the world. You can call one of the American banks in Toronto and ask them, someone there can probably answer your question.
