Canadian online gamblers have been reporting an inability to accept wire transfers from some banks as well as eWallet withdrawal transfers. 

In particular, one reader of the CasinoMeister.com website has specifically mentioned Bank of Nova Scotia as denying such transactions.

Websites the likes of top5onlinecasino.ca and others that list/review online casinos that cater to Canadian residents are monitoring the situation closely, though it should be noted that players have reported receipt of wires via other big name Canadian banks without issue.

Canadian online gamblers still have the ability to deposit and withdraw funds using third party processing companies at many of the better online casinos.
