<<2) i can only buy 20 % foreign content in my canuck ira..>>

Just spitballing here, so bear with me. Can you open an IRA in the US & transfer your IRA(or a part of) to the US brokerage, thus getting around the laws up there? Could it be a "Roth" IRA, which would let it grow free from US taxes? Are there brokerage houses that work in both the US & Canada?
