Try working your retirement income backwards and allocate your investments accordingly. Imagine that most of your income will come from your TFSA (100 percent tax free) and eligible dividends from a non registered account (basically tax free in every province up to about $50,000). Invest just enough in your RRSP so that you can deregister around $20,000 per year (to mirror the Federal/Provincial personal exemptions) between the year you retire and age 65 as a bridge until you collect CPP and OAS. You will pay basically no income tax and maybe get a chance to retire younger having more personal income because of the lower tax burden. We used this strategy and retired more than 8 years ago while still in our 40s. It absolutely works. Proudly written by a Canadian for Canadians.
