Which Credit Card?

Which Credit Card?
I have an American Express Air Miles card but not everywhere accepts it, so I was thinking about getting either a VISA or Mastercard too. Does anyone have any cards that they reccommend? I am preferably looking for something that offers some type of rewards- why not right, if I am using a credit card I might as well get free stuff as long as there is no annual fee.
So far I have checked out:
-TD Green VISA: the one with no annual fee, but also no rewards so its nothing special.
-GM VISA: thought it was really good at first but then it says you can only use up to $3500 off of the purcahse price of a new vehicle. Sure thats a lot but I dont plan on buying a GM so I decided against it.
-Canadian Tire Mastercard: I was thinking about this one because you earn CT money, but I'm not sure if it has an annual fee or not. Does anyone know?
-Cash: Not getting another creidt card, might be a good idea but when I have a big purchase I dont like carrying around a lot of cash.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks.

BEST CARD: citibank petro-point platinum mastercard. no fee, $0.02 off EVERY liter of gas, petro-points on EVERYTHING you buy.
i also have a CIBC dividend platinum visa but will be cancelling it at year-end. why pay for a CC?

Well, I have Canadian Tire MasterCard you rack up those CT money I guess, I also have a TD VISA, pretty good if you want to buy a GM in the future, lol it's basically a GM Card, CIBC Visa is pretty good and you can't really go wrong choosing cards besides going into debt like I am, but mostly is because of school

the Canadian tire mastercard is the best I think.....if you work it out the percentage that you get is higher than the other I think (I don't know about the GM one, don't really care either..lol)......plus when you get gas at CT you automatically get the highest coupon...

if you like airmails the BMO Bank of Montreal has a mastercard with airmiles attached to it also, so does their bank accounts
and you could fill at Shell and use airmiles and get double...just a little way to cheat and get more points
