The card will hold multiple currencies, and not just CAD or USD.

It also sounds like it will bypass the "only keep $100,000 in an account" CDIC rule by keeping money in segregated accounts at different banks but would all appear as one balance in the transfer wise account

You pay a huge fee to do that. This will let you do that much cheaper.
