Default Re: New Bank Account in Canada for US resident

[ QUOTE ]
US resident. I would like to go to Canada and set up a bank account.

Do I need a Canadian insurance ID to set up a Canadian bank account? If so, how would I obtain one?

I believe I misinformed the Canadian bank representative I spoke with that I was planning on becoming a resident and this process was in the works. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] She said a passport and US license would be sufficient to open an account.

Before I make the trip I'd like to avoid any snags.

Any help / info appreciated.
