Edit: I guess a question would be what is the ideal card for somebody who puts about $1500 - $2000 in expenses on their card monthly. And are points better than cash back for taxes, etc.
Here's a good place to start:

And the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada has a decent tool:

When I was looking at cards, I realized that the $1500-$2000 range is where cashback starts pulling away from travel/merch rewards cards. Of course it depends on how much is 4%, 2%, and 1%, but it definitely made sense for me.
