I use and recommend Questrade. If you're only trading Canadian stocks, Wealth Simple Trade would be better since they don't have any commissions, but you also can't hold USD so you're going to be paying them a exchange rate fee each time you buy anything US listed. Interactive Brokers is the better option for option trading as their options commissions are lower than Questrade. Those are the big three, most of the bank brokers aren't very good.

I have no real use for an RRSP since I don't invest in dividend stocks. I'm thinking of starting one anyway because apparently if you're sued in civil court here and lose, they can't take money from a RRSP but they can with a TFSA. It would be nice to have some money that couldn't be stolen from me.

I switched from Investors Edge to Questrade. Questrade is simpler to use, the commissions are lower, and my orders get filled faster at a better price. The only issue I have with it is that every time I log in I have to see this image of a pondering black guy, I'm sick of it.
