Frozenlock was buying from Canadians, but is out of funds. See topic: http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=10980.0

He says go to IRC Channel #bitcoin-cad.

Yeah, I'm in Canada also. My bank wants a stupid amount of $ for a wire transfer.

Has anyone tried sending cash or check to Mt. Gox? Seems like it would take too long and the price is rising fast...

but with mt gox, you need a LibertyReserve account then a third party account to get paid right?

You should really come to #bitcoin-cad.
Don't expect this to be instantaneous, but you should be able to buy/sell at the current price.
Interac is by far the best way to deal with Bitcoin (until we get a true exchange), and this is how to get the most of it https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Secure_Trading-CAD-interac (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Secure_Trading-CAD-interac).

Hopefully I'll have more cash soon!
Gotta catch'em all!

I've sent cash to the madhatter repeatedly with no trouble.

Buy LR through Nanaimo-gold.com with cash/interac email at 4% then fund your own MtGox trading account with it

Put up a gig on forbitcoin.com!

IE

I will send you the market CAD value of 1 BTC

Then list in the details that you will do email money transfer, etc.
