A Canadian friend just shared this notice that Canada will stop issuing income letters on 1 April. Fortunately he renewed his non-O visa just recently but will have to figure a new method for next year.

TLDR : Answer Summary
As of April 1, Canada will cease issuing income verification letters for expats in Thailand, impacting Canadians applying for visas. Those who need income verification from the Canadian Embassy can do so before the deadline, as the verification will be valid for six months. Post-April 1, Canadians will need to either deposit funds locally in Thailand or adapt to using an international transfer for proof of income, similar to the methods previously adopted by expatriates from the US, UK, and Australia.

BUT
just going to close commenting..
You Canadianz have until April 1 to get the income verification from the Canadian Embassy here (it's valid for SIX MONTHS from when it was issued)
After that to meet the proof of funds you're going to have to bank the money here OR use the monthly income method by international transfer like US, UK and Aussies had to switch to once their embassies stopped the affidavit of income notary
