Q: In your excellent response to my question re a withdrawal stage senior moving dividend paying stocks to TFSA to allow dividends to grow tax free, you included this:
' ocapital gains, which are still taxed lower for most investors".
Taxes on dividends are paid yearly and capital gains taxed when the stock is sold. So aren't dividend stocks taxed "twice" dividends + capital gains, whereas non dividend stocks are only taxed on capital gains? I know I must be missing something here because the point about dividend tax being lower is a universal one.

For which investors are dividends taxed lower and for whom are they not? thanks for the education!
