I am in Canada and I have had an iPad for a couple of weeks. Using a Canadian iTunes account will not work with the iPad so you have to create a US based account. For purchasing apps I have found that a MAstercard Vanilla gift card works as a payment option. These cards appear to be treated as US credit cards. As foghat mentioned a US iTunes gift card should also work.
