What's a good stock trading solution in Canada with low/no commissions?

My bank's solution is ... servicable. The fee is $9.95CAD per trade. But the interface annoys me & logs me out.

        Bought by Morgan Stanley in 1997, the Dean Witter name was dropped in 2001. -- (edited) - znufrii Feb 1, 12:57 1
        
        Oh, and that’s neat, the Wikipedia page for MSSB has the acquisition tree showing all the mergers that created the company. -- nm - znufrii Feb 1, 13:04
- The US brokerages don't operate up here, no, but each of the major banks up here has their own. - Reagen Feb 1, 11:45
- you said ebay but I assume you meant etrade ... :) -- nm - Beryllium Feb 1, 11:43 1
