All of Canada uses debit cards that don't work over the credit network. Some banks allow you to request a VISA number that's linked to your chequing account (for online use only), but debit cards use the separate Interac system.

I think if an account belongs to a minor child, it may not be possible to get a regular debit card (that also works with the credit card network), but an ATM card may be possible? That's the only reason I'm aware of to get one.
