Nothing too great at iTrade. Posted for comparison. As of March 30 2020.
And no VanCity here either.

Some full service brokers will give up their quarter you can ask

Direct
Effort Trust 1yr2.55% 2yr2.55%
General Bank of Canada 2.63% 2.60% 2.55%

FS broker+.25
Effort Trust 1yr2.80% 2yr2.80%
General Bank of Canada 2.88% 2.85% 2.80%

I'm just wondering if the others will spike up a bit more. U.S. stock market seems to have stabilized

I like the idea of including broker specials in this thread as well.

One of the brokers I deal with, Rothenberg Group, with offices in Quebec and Alberta advertised 2.6% for 18 months $50,000 minimum deposit. Also 2.63% one year

A local Ottawa broker, Scrivens, currently offers 1 year at 2.68%
