Can sone Canadian webmastrs please step forward and suggest what you are using or recommending.
PLEASE
Why not look at the join pages of most Canadian programs. Most of them are incorporated in the US or EU. If you're willing to jump through all the legal hoops, it's the smartest option.

Some of the bigger guys have their own merchant account, but you need to have good volume to get a merchant account. And unless you can find a Canadian bank that will give you a high risk merchant account, you'll still need to incorporate in the US/EU as the cross border acquiring regulations still apply.

Some of the smaller guys use the "no-name" processors, but we all know what happens there.

Verotel Pro is a solid option as well. It'll cost you $1500 and they incorporate you in EU, but I'm sure it's less than the necessary legal fees to do it on your own.
