sultan, that me be so, an new broker? nahh, they told me about most of the stuff that has I have posted that has increased my RRSP by 1000%, give em a break. I will check that rule today. I have not worried about that part of the rules as CA stocks don't act like US stocks do so Inever use CA ones anyway.

Sultan , turns out it is YOU who needs the new broker LOL, I called Revenue Canada they said it has NOTHING to do with where the stock trades OR where head office is ! The citeria is the the jurisdiction that owns most of the stock, a US company trading on the NAS, headquarters in Dallas that is 51% owned by Canadians does not count as foreign content! A Vancouver company trading on the CDNX who's stock is 51% owned by the Brits is foreign. It is up to the brokerage house to keep track. RRSP's are checked once a month for % content , the idea being if you are over 20% you need a few weeks to get it back below 20% so it only calculated once a month. Oh yeah, the % content is STILL only 20%, the new rates are PROPOSED only , until proclaimed into law, if ever.
