Q: My husband and I are basically retired (I still am working a couple of days a week as I enjoy it) so our income is now from CPP, his OAS, and investments.

I have been reading about pensionizing income after retirement, especially if a person doesn't have a corporate pension. The literature talks about annuities. With low interest rates they are more expensive then if interest rates are higher but regardless they would provide guaranteed income, although not indexed. This provides some income security. What is your opinion on annuities? My husband is 68 and I am 63.

Q: I have a question about the tax treatment of Canadian stocks that are listed on the American exchange. I own a number of Canadian stocks listed in the TSX that pay Canadian dividends and allow me to apply dividend tax credit in my non-registered account. Ex. AQN, BNS, BIP.un
I'm considering exchanging some of these stocks to the American exchange so that I can collect dividends in US dollars.
Will the dividend tax credit remain in tact in the non-registered account?Would there be any tax with held impact if I made to same switch in my TFSA?
