Bitbuy is one of the most popular cryptocurrency exchanges in Canada. It was founded in 2016 and has its headquarters in Toronto.

Bitbuy is one of the leading cryptocurrency exchanges in Canada, founded in June 2016 by Adam Goldman.  Its company headquarters are based in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, and  currently serves more than 400,000 Canadians with support for 15  cryptocurrencies.

The exchange is run and operated by Bitbuy Technologies Inc., a division of crypto investment company First Ledger Corp. In January 2022, WonderFi,  a Vancouver-based technology company that is publicly listed on the NEO  Exchange, bought out First Ledger Corp to gain exclusive rights over  the operations of Bitbuy.

Despite its storied ownership history, Bitbuy is  among the best options for Canadians looking to invest in the nascent  digital asset market, offering two main services: cryptocurrency  brokerage and exchange. Advanced cryptocurrency traders will gravitate towards the Pro trade service, which has most of the bells and whistles needed to carry out effective trading activities.

The biggest advantage to using the Pro trade feature is that traders have more control over the price at which they enter or exit their positions and how much they pay for the trades. Additionally, traders can save on trading fees as the Pro trade feature is much cheaper than the Express trade.

Bitbuy is a Canadian cryptocurrency exchange, caters primarily to Canadian users, allowing deposits in Canadian dollars via Interac e-Transfer and wire transfer. It offers a diverse range of cryptocurrencies, including popular options like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and newer additions such as Solana, Cardano, and Polygon.

Front and center on Bitbuy’s website is the best Canadian crypto exchanges featuring the Canadian flag. They are fully regulated. The major downside of Bitbuy was their deposit fees which were 1.5%! However, they listened to their customers and waived it in 2023 so the only fee you pay now is 1.5% withdrawal fee which makes BitBuy one of the cheapest crypto trading platforms in Canada.

Pros:

  • Bitbuy caters to both beginners and advanced traders with its two separate platforms – Express Trade and Pro Trade. Great for both beginners and advanced users
  • Free deposits via Interac e-Transfer
  • Bitbuy has a solid reputation for providing Canadians with a secure trading platform 

Cons: 

  • Bitbuy is only available within Canada;
  • Bitbuy  has a limited number of coins available compare to global crypto exchanges (but they have the most popular ones)
  • High withdrawal fees
  • No phone or live chat support on the website

Canada is becoming a nation of immigrants

Canada Immigration

Canada has the fastest-growing population of any G8 nation, with two-thirds of the growth coming from immigration. These newcomers are radically transforming our elite educational institutions. This is especially true of immigrants from Philippines, India and China, who collectively make up about a third of all migrants to Canada, and who tend to exhibit high levels of academic performance.

There’s a century-old precedent for all of this. At Harvard University in 1908, Jews represented only about 9% of the student body. By 1925, following on the great waves of immigrants from Europe and Russia, the proportion had gone up to 28%. At Columbia, the number reached 40%. Twenty-eight per cent of Jews at Harvard in the 1920s graduated with distinction, versus just 15% for gentiles. But just a quarter of Jews participated in Harvard athletics, half the rate for gentiles.

Sound familiar?

No doubt it’s true that Canadian children could stand to watch a little less television and do a little more homework.

Stephen Harper: "It's that simple."

GUANGZHOU, China (AP) – Canada will sell more oil to China but won’t shy away from raising the issue of human rights.

Canada has abundant supplies of virtually every form of energy and will sell to whoever wants to buy. “It’s that simple,” Harper said. “But in relations between China and Canada, you should expect us to continue to raise issues of fundamental freedoms and human rights.”

These remarks to a business group in the southern Chinese city of Guangzhou were his first public comments on human rights since he arrived in China on Tuesday.

There were no senior Chinese officials in attendance.
