===Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP)===

A Registered Education Savings Plan (RESP) is a special savings account that helps you save for post-secondary education. You can open a RESP at a bank, credit union or investment company. The government does not tax this money while it is in your RESP. It can grow tax-free. When the money pays for education, the money is taxed in the student’s name. Since many students have little or no other income, they can usually withdraw the money tax-free.
