I do not see the APPLY NOW button on the airmiles.ca site. If applying through BMO site it doesn't give the welcome offer from the airmiles site
Maybe it is your ad blocker or browser (Brave with Shields UP). Otherwise, private mode should show the button.

Yes. I have done this multiple times with the WE card.
Multiple times? Did you get the sign up bonus each time or more than once?
Note: no need to down grade after the first year. I got the card a few years ago, and called in each year to cancel. Each time, they offered me another free year. World elite black card.
The Golden Rule: those who have the gold, make the rules
Not necessary for free renewal. It depends on the CSR.
I am not sure whether you get the bonus AM this time for people chum the card. This time it does say NEW card holder.

Does anyone know if this means you don't qualify if you got the bonus and cancelled this card last year?

I have never seen this extra 500 miles offer before, but I have been approved for this card 3 times now with the 3000 air miles SUB each time.
I usually wait 12 months from the time of cancellation before applying again.
