Good podcast guys it is nice to have some Canadians talking about FI. Can you do an episode on tax avoidance strategies for income as well as rental properties. There is not a lot of canadian content that focuses on this issue and it is one of my biggest expenses. Thanks and keep the shows coming.

Hello gentlemen, just wanted to let you you have a fan and dedicated listener in Eastern Ontario! I really enjoyed this episode. One thing worth mentioning in regards to actual Dripping (owning the shares in your name) is often you're buying shares at a discounted rate. Also, there can be a big upfront cost to have the share certificate transferred to you, but you can also "simply" have someone who already owns it transfer it to you. 3rd big benefit you guys already mentioned is the fractional shares your dividends are buying you, which gets you the full compounding effect.
