Summary

This card made the cut of this list for one reason only... It has a fantastic signup bonus for the low annual fee of CA $199. 75,000 MR Points could be transferred to Aeroplan to book a 14-hour business-class flight on Etihad (or a dozen short-haul domestic flights), and you can earn them by simply signing up for the card and meeting the minimum spend. Not bad at all.
