Hugh, Tax rules for RRSPs are the same whether you live in Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal or St. John's. These same rules can allow investors to get more than 20% foreign content, by allowing investment in funds that also have foreign content in them. The combined foreign content brings it over the 20% limit in a perfectly legal way, no matter where you live in Canada. The Caisse de Depot et Placement manages the Regime des Rentes du Quebec, which is the equivalent of the Canada Pension Plan. Not a penny comes out of your pocket. May I suggest that before you put your ignorance of investments, taxation and politics on display on a public forum that you find someone close to where you live that can explain the basics to you. If you still feel the need to share your ignorance and racism, I am sure you can find some other forum where people like you are tolerated.
