Hey quick question here , looking at starting a long term position in either BMO or TD and was just wondering what your thoughts are on holding it in a tfsa vs rrsp. Is it better to hold in an rrsp since I plan on buying and holding these stocks for the very long term? Thanks !

Hi there,

Outside of your individual tax situation - there is no benefit of holding it in either the TFSA or RRSP. Both are excellent places to stash long-term investments. It will all come down to your general tax profile and whether it is best to contribute to your TFSA or RRSP. General rule of thumb is lower earning years - TFSA, higher income years - RRSP. That however, is a very broad generalization and may not be appropriate for everyone.
