Check HSBC. They used to have savings accounts in various currencies.

The term "Euro" here doesn't necessarily mean the currency "Euro", but rather that it is an account that holds the specified currency in a foreign country. By dropping the "Euro", you are asking if any Canadian banks offer Yen accounts in Japan.

From what I gather the person above wants a JPY account in Canada, TD bank does that, I have a JPY account that holds Yen, I can send and recive money with that account without exchanging to Canadian first, which allows me to hold money in there and exchange when the exchange rate is favourable
