Note 2 – By transferring $20,000 from contract #1 to contract #2 or a new contract, you can achieve full coverage of your RRSP accounts. The same applies to your TFSA accounts however as contribution limits for TFSA accounts are much lower, it will take considerable time to reach the $250,000 coverage.
