Definitely the easiest way to save... and if you have it go directly into RRSP's, you won't even be able to touch the money in a weak moment (unless you're cool w/ the disadvantages of taking out RRSP money...).

In the end I found it was better to control this stuff myself, but the auto-withdrawal definitely help the 'willpower' aspect of saving for investing.
You can also have an investment advisor set this up for you, and set-up a withdrawal to come out as often as you like.
