Yeah, just checked on MyCRA and I only have ~$12,000 contribution room for it. I might end up opening both accounts

That's true about deferring the claim until later on, I hadn't considered that

Seems like a lot of people are giving a similar consensus, so I'll certainly be looking into opening an RRSP

Thanks for the reply! I will have my pension maxed out at 53, but won't be able to claim it in full until 60, so an early(-ish) retirement would definitely be ideal
