i know online gambling was banned before for Canadians... I used to play blackjack on 888 site but it is now impossible to use your credit card or any middle man to send in money...
but ive heard of people playing poker online for money... is it possible?

It's a grey area in regards to the laws of whether online gambling is legal or not. However, it is definitely not illegal and you can gamble as much as you would like online. The only problem is that many credit card companies and 3rd party online wallet sites do not allow transactions through gambling sites, which has made it difficult to move money around. You're going to have to find one of these online wallet sites that do allow transactions through gambling sites. A few off the top of my head are epassporte.com and click2pay.com

You can gamble to your hearts content on that site. The only problem is finding a Canadian credit card company that will allow you to add funds to your account. Mine won't let me (RBC and MBNA).

I move funds in and out of gambling sites using click2pay.com.
I have a debit card from Click2Pay to withdraw winnings from any bank machine.

Go to Money Mart and get a Titanium Plus card (http://www.moneymart.ca/titaniumcards/)
I just added funds to my Full Tilt Poker account this way and it will work with any poker site

Attach your bank account to it and you can transfer money around.
Also TD credit cards work as a method of depositing money into poker sites/gambling sites. Get their no fee 1% cash back card to double dip :D

that us bill to prevent usage of ccs to fund 'gambling' sites really took a toll on all the bettors/poker players! i used to use neteller.com all the time and now of course they shut that down... i guess alot of kids were using there parents ccs online or alot of cc fraud:confused:
