Been looking at cheap cases for myself all day today. Without getting something that is totally trash, I would look at Cooler Master N200/N300/N400, or Corsair Carbide Series Spec-01, Spec-02, Spec-03. Those might be a little closer to $50 USD than CAD, but we're talking a matter of a few dollars, get 5 extra dollars in your pocket first and then get a case, because if you want to get down into $30-40 USD, you're gonna get flimsy cases with ugly designs. Even some of the ones I listed are already pretty "lightweight" in terms of how thin the metal is. Any case that can handle Micro-ATX should be able to fit what you need, nothing too crazy in your parts list, just make sure to check the length of that graphics card will fit in whatever you want to buy. I'm probably going to end up getting a Carbide Spec-02 which is $39 USD after a rebate from a store in my city. (But I never plan on receiving the rebate because that's always a hit-or-miss process, so I'm basically expecting to spend $49 on it)

Watched countless videos doing my own research today, seems like a lot of these cases are relatively tight in terms of cable management on the backside of the tray. Best thing you can hope for is a design like the Spec-02 where the side panel has a large bump-out area that is meant to help the cables fit without being crushed.

Just look through here and see what you like as the prices start to increase.
