Sony is the best brand, and I have been using the same since long, but other feture which you can consider are digital shutter speed, and mico mode, else is good....nothing to be thought much....

Don't buy Sony, Olympus or Fuji. For starters they all us a proprietary memory card. Then their lens quality is not that of a Nikon or a Canon. Canons are far faster than Nikons. Buy a Canon or a Panasonic(good lens, good zoom). A540 to the SD800is is in you price range. Go to dpreview.com to look at them. Its 6 megapixles with a 4x optical. I work with Digital Cameras and I have heard nothing but good things about Canons and bad things about the rest. Its pretty much the complete package.

What JC Darrow said. Nikon and Canon all the way. I have a good camera, the Canon S3 IS almost a pro-sumer camera. it fits in your range, in CAD.
You need to identify your camera needs. price range is a good start.
What about manual settings? Would you use those? or are you only into point and click?
Do you already have memory cards of a particular format? Most are SD anyways.. but.... some, such as Sony and Fuji use special cards.
Do you need high optical zoom?
AA type common batteries a necessity? or is a battery pack that only that company makes and uses a special charger acceptable?

Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ1 5.0 Megapixel - it's at the lower end of your price range on Canada ebay and at 5mp at the lower end of entry level these days but has big plus of a 10x optical zoom (or 12.5x if you shoot at 3mp) and its Leica lens gives brilliant results! Many features including macro setting, image stabilisation, etc. I'm a lifetime Nikon user - my other camera is the Nikon D100 DSLR - but I'm now taking far more shots with the TZ1. It won't substitute for the top end but will give you excellent results and it's excellent value for money.

I have an Olympus SP-510UZ. It's 7.1 Megapixels. I love it. You can pick one up for around $275.00 US. It takes incredible pictures. It has a 2.5" LCD which I also really like.
