If my understanding is correct, I don't think that you can short in a RRSP, you can buy calls, but as far as I understand you cannot sell them unless you own the underlying stock, (maybe Porter Davis' thread or Keith Massey's thread can help us out...)

PS: I will post this to a couple of threads... please note that I am not spamming... just looking for answers.... Thanks in advance.... Peter

I think you have two options here, you either play NT :-) or you go with the Iunits , they are trading on the TSE under the symbol XIU, you can short it buy puts etc. quote.yahoo.com

iunits.com
(look under iUnits questions & answers for more infos)

Regards,

Marc.

Of course you would be allowed to do it to protect a long position in an RRSP, not go 100% short.JMO
