Question:  
Are there any companies in Canada which offer unsecured credit cards to previous bankrupts? In the USA, it appears to be easy to get a credit card, even with bad credit, no credit or previous bankruptcy. Is that not possible here?

Answer:   Obtaining credit in Canada after bankruptcy will depend on you and the lender approached. Some discharged bankrupts are able to access credit very quickly while others cannot. I am unaware of any specific companies who offer unsecured credit cards to discharged bankrupts and suggest you talk to your current banker.
