You should try getting a President Choice or a Canadian Tire credit card. They pretty much approve anyone.
I just did with canadian tire and got a letter today saying they cannot offer me credit base on the information i've provided. i guess it's because i didn't put my SIN on the online app.

I had very good credit once and at the time I was using RBC chequing account. Got RBC platinum along with it for easier banking. Ran into some financial problem and they shut down both my credit and chequing account. Now I try to stay away from using the same bank for chequing and credit card accounts.

But I guess I have no choice, seems no where believes that I have steady income now besides my own bank.
