    A recent Statistics Canada report stated that "about 29 percent of all
tax-filers, or 36         percent of those eligible, contributed to RRSPs
last year." But 29 percent isn�t all that     many. Even 36 percent begs the
question: why are so many people not using the RRSP system?     The reason
for the low RRSP usage estimates by Statistics Canada is that the estimates
both     ignore pension contributions, and include tax-filers who shouldn�t
be contributing at all.
