Neilmck,

Did your car need any changes made to it to conform to Canadian standards? If so, what were they? Can you address this issue.

Thanks.

Spousal RRSP

If my partner opens a Spousal RRSP for me and contributes to it, can I also contribute to the same one and use it as my RRSP, or do I need to open up a separate RRSP account?

Can you refer me to a website also?

Thx
