Car Hire in Canada

Hey everybody,

We are away to Toronto tomorrow and we are looking to hire a car while we are there, but all the websites say you need a credit card for a security deposit when you get there and that debit cards wont be accepted, does anybody know of any companies who dont need a credit card?

thanks

    Whenever I have hired a car they have always wanted a credit card because that way they can ensure they get their money.
