Any suggestions?

What about the
Home Trust Preferred Visa?
It sounds like it meets your requirements perfectly:
- Visa
- No annual fee
- No forex fee
- 1% cash back
The other option is to pick up a Visa that has a good sign-up bonus with the first year free and cancel within a year. For example, the
TD Aeroplan Visa Infinite gives you 35,000 Aeroplan miles when you spend $1k on it. This promo ends on May 17, but there is always something decent out there if you don't mind flipping cards every year. (Or more often if you really feel like racking up a bunch of points).
