Canadian dollar account

Hi

Does anyone know of any banks which offer a Canadian dollar account?

I'm expecting a cheque from Canada within the next few months and would like to bank it in Canadian dollars rather than convert back to sterling, as I'll be moving out there in a couple of years anyway.

To this end, it would be ideal if I could get an account which doesn't charge a monthly fee and which I can transfer to a branch wherever I decide to live over there.

Any ideas?

    If we are talking about a significant amount HSBC may provide the service also. If you are serious about moving over the then i would defo go with banks with branches over in Canada too.
