Hi,
I received the below email from MoneyBookers/Skrill this afternoon
*Depositing via MoneyBookers/Skrill will cease January 2nd, 2014.
*Cashouts to MoneyBookers/Skrill will cease January 31st, 2014.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Sarah XXXXX,
We would like to inform you that, having reviewed its operations, Skrill has reached a decision to cease processing gambling payments in Canada. Payments in to gambling merchants will no longer be processed from 2 January, with payments out discontinuing on 31 January.
Merchants have already been notified of this change and we encourage you to withdraw any funds you have in merchant systems before 31 January.
Skrill would like to thank you for your custom and hopes that you continue to make use of its services outside of gambling.
You can still use your Skrill wallet to make safe and fast online payments � using your bank account or debit and credit cards without having to enter any sensitive details online. You can also upload and send money internationally to anyone with an email address.
Best wishes,
Skrill

I've looked up other Deposit Options for Canadians and they are as follows:
*Ukash:
Ukash Location Finder:
https://www.ukash.com/en-GB/
*Vanilla Prepaid Mastercard:
Vanilla Prepaid Mastercards can be purchased at:
**Shoppers Drug Mart
**Money Mart
**7/11 Convience Store
**Quickie Convience Store
**Jean Couteau Pharmacy
They come in dividends of:
$25, $50, $100 & $200...There is an activation fee of 3.95 for the 25.00 card and 4.95 for the $50, $100 & $200 card.
Instadebit:
Click2Pay:
Visa:
Mastercard
Ecco:
Majority of Casinos accept one or all of the above deposit options..Some options you may cashout to..The ones you can't you can request a cheque to be sent. This may incur a fee at some Casinos..
Crushers if you're aware of any other deposit options for Canadians, please post to let us know..
This is NOT the Casinos who are pulling MoneyBookers/Skrill it's the Company themselves..
SC
