Malcolm,

First of all, I am honored by your suggestion I am smart. I am not as smart as most of the people on this thread, but I aim trying to be openminded, because I want to learn. Let me know if I'm not.

As a Canadian, though, can you set up a Canadian corporation for your investment accounts and pay the lower corporate income tax rate on capital gains, then issuing dividends to yourself - which would be taxed at personal income tax rates, but depending on the timing you'd be in a lower tax bracket (ie retirement)? Would you pay lower corporate income taxes? Are the filing fees nominal?

Just a thought.
