Steps on How To Start Dividend Investing for Canadians

Step 1 – Choose your investment platform

I’ve personally used RBC, CIBC, and TD brokerage account but I switched to Questrade for two reasons. It’s low cost and it’s free to buy ETFs. Lowering Fees or no fees will make your money grow faster! Please visit Questrade to open an account

Step 2 – Screen Dividend Stocks or Dividend ETFs

Here are some of my tools to screen stocks or ETFs

  • Yahoo Finance
  • Simplywall street 
  • Individual Corporate Sites or ETFs sites such as iShares, BMO ETFs, and Vanguard ETFs
  • My iPhone OS stock screening
  • ValenzuelaPost.com – This is my other website that I created to check news & trends such as Market news, Business news, Tech news, Crypto, and etc…
