So this isn't going to set any of us for for early retirement but I will share something I found out recently. My company has no pension but they match RRSP contributions up to 5% (pre tax), it is all through Manulife. You can go online and change your contirbution % how you want. I tinkered with mine for a bit last year and found that my take home is (very) slightly more by increasing my contribution from 5% to 7%. Son instead of saving 10% annualy I save 12% and get an extra $14 a month on my pay cheque.
