Buy low-cost mutual funds or ETFs in a taxable account :)

Remember you can buy canadian $ versions of almost all Vanguard ETFs, capital gains from stock are taxed less than interest

Oh no, MMM problems ;)

I would say just keep going!!

But once those are maxed out pay attention to asset location.

Canadian dividends are one of the best things to keep in non-registered accounts.
But these articles explain it better than me.

It's time for a cash/taxable account.
