BMO has a promo for (existing?) clients opening a new Smart Saver Account. This is apparently a targeted offer via email, online banking or by a BMO employee. Account interest 3.25% p.a. until April 30, 2019. One free transfer out per month; $5 each withdrawal or additional transfer out per month.

Thanks for the heads up! I got this offer as well. Pretty decent rate but withdrawals have to be carefully planned with only 1 free withdrawal per month.

Hi there. I deal with BMO but not a Smart Saver Account. I used to have a CU Account that had limits on the savings account withdrawals BUT moving/transferring funds to a chequing account did not count. You might want to ask BMO.
