you're right about this. The certification is a way of Neteller confirming that you are in fact the owner of the account so that they can get money to you quicker and don't have to wait on your back to process the transaction. It helps when you are depositing on a site if you want to play right then and not wait 2 days for your bank to clear the transaction.

I think opening an account in Canada is a brilliant idea though. If the regs ever kick in you will have no problem playing as a Canadian account will still be perfectly legal with Neteller, and you will also be able to play on sites that have pulled out of the US because you can reference your Canadian account and a friend or family members address so they will think you are playing from Canada.
