I am paying for them thru Interative Brokers. It costs about $25/month for streaming quotes and level 2. Canadian exchange fees are high for some reason. If I was Canadian, I think there are several brokers that provide it with an acct but fees seem to be higher in Canada so they probably have a little more room to give out some freebies.

kipp440 re: canadian live quotes

Its not streaming, but the Fidelity quote system gives you the current quote on Canadian stocks. Just stick in the suffix (eg cmm.v, hbm.to). MikeS97707 mentioned that a while back, and I use it. Again, its not streaming and there's no level 2, so may not be what you're looking for.

Good luck.

Kipp, I have just started subscribing to Stockwatch.com just so I could get live quotes and news on Canadian stocks. I pay US$5.95 per month for news and delayed quotes on whatever portfolios I want to set up, to a maximum of 40 stocks, and I can click on any of those stocks for a realtime quote with bid, ask, and volume at a cost of 2 cents Canadian for each quote. I only need the realtime quote when I am buying or selling something, so the number of quotes I get won't add very much to the monthly cost. And the service picks up quite a few Canadian press releases that I do not see on my Yahoo portfolio.

Stockwatch has several other levels of service, but this seems the cheapest way to follow all my Canadian stocks and get live quotes easily any time I want one.
