It’s not First Year Free in Quebec indeed you do have to pay the $149. But, you get 30,000 more points ($150) and you have no minimum spend where out-of-Quebec needs to spend $10,000 for same bonus!
It is a no-brainer for Quebec residents – not sure why they are segmenting the offer by province.

Disclosure: I have been with them for years (prior it was PC Financial) and they have been great.
I found a great new first year free offer on the BMO Air Miles World Elite Mastercard (usual annual fee of $120).
1,000 Bonus Miles after your first purchase and 2,000 Bonus Miles when you spend $3,000 in the first 3 months.
Minimum $80,000 (individual) or $150,000 (household) annual income required.
I enjoy using Air Miles simply to redeem against groceries and gas but I have seen great redemptions for car rentals. It is a high minimum spend for the bonus but it has some nice benefits for the first year with no annual fee. I wouldn’t use this after the minimum spend has been reached as other cards would provide a higher return.
Offer ends March 31, 2019.
Another awesome freebie!
