There is one way that I believe that you could use your RRSP to buy a house. I think that you can set up a registered self-directed mortgage and loan yourself the money to buy the house at a rate which is accepted by Revenue Canada.

There is a chapter about setting up this kind of mortgage in Gail Vaz-Oxlade's "RRSP Answer Book". I have the 1995 edition. You might want to pick up a copy... some interesting info on RRSP's in a very simple format. I imagine there might be a new edition around and that some of the rules might have changed.
