Well, I could name you a few Canadian hosts, but none of them accept Canadian currency.

Usually conversion is automatic when you pay by CC, so it doesn't matter. As for the location, if that's what you want, then it could make a difference. Where are you located?

I don't have a CC, thats why I wanted a Canadian host.
I guess I'll probably use Myacen or something like that.

There are quite a few canadian hosts. Most are very high quality in terms of connectivity and support, so they are not cheap.

might as well go with Myacen or something
