Open self directed brokerage accounts and max your rrsp, tfsa then taxable account. Invest in boring but solid ETFs with low fees like VTI or VOO and focus on compounding/beating inflation until retirement rather than short term gains. Set aside emergency cash about 6 months of living expenses. Stash it in a high yield saving or money market fund. Not sure if there’s good ones offered by Canadian banks

40% Precious Metals, 25% SPYD, 25%VTI, 10% Extremely Speculative Small Bets (Options) Hold everything in USD, most brokers support USD accounts. And, lastly choose a brokerage/investments with the lowest fees, they are all pretty much the same in terms of service.

I hope you have that 300k in a HYSA or something like fidelity SPAX. You would be getting 4-5% interest.
