Unless your net worth is over 2 million renouncing is painless. I am headed that direction myself.

Is there any exemption re: the RRSP? Somewhere I heard about a $600,000 exemption re: gains but maybe that excludes RRSP gains.
Also what a a pension from a Corporate Pension plan? This is not something you can cash in or opt out of?
