Can a non-Canadian citizen/resident open a bank account in Canada?

The “L” Word asked:
I want to open a bank account in Canada so that I can deposit funds to show Canadian immigration that I have sufficient funds for resettling there. I would like to know if as a non Canadian citizen/resident if I can do so, and if so what steps do I need to take to open an account with just my passport when I return to Canada during a leisure trip.
