werther - even at the Cdn schools you're thinking about, many PhD students enter via a doctoral stream MA - U of T and Queen's encourage students to take PhD courses, UBC has a PhD track MA where you take the first year PhD courses and only finish the MA if you get booted from teh program (I believe). If you actually do most of that math you're planning on, you'll be in as good a shape for a PhD as most, esp if you substitute some of those more esoteric math classes (groups & rings???) for grad econ courses. Depending on your marks, I'd apply to both PhD and MA programs and see what happens.
