I have not actually used them (BCT-E) myself. But if they offer the option to fund via a money order, that may be a good place to start. It is cheap and straight forward. That process takes me 3-5 business days on another exchange. If you are able to link your bank account then you can do basically instant transfers. It could take a while the first time you do it however. You must be verified beforehand.  
Getting verified is worth the hassle I think. Once it is set up you can get coins anytime with ease.

What is the quickest way to transfer money to your account and be able to make purchases on BTC-E?

Thanks in advance.

I think the prices at localbitcoins are high because the seller must drive to a meeting place and they are often stood-up by buyers. But I don't trade with loonies (CAD) so I'm not sure what exchange is best. BTC-E is the most popular I believe.

The prices listed there are like 200-300 per BTC more then quoted on the BTC-E exchange, why such a markup?

Where is the cheapest place to get them, where the price is the closest to the market price?

Thanks.

Localbitcoins if you want to start.
For more, MtGox or BTC-e
