Are there any stocks Canadians can't buy?
Rounding it up
There aren’t really any stocks that Canadians cannot purchase but there are limits to how and when they can do so.
Canadians cannot buy into American IPOs but can participate in American stock trading using Canadian companies.
There are a number of different schemes that are illegal but can be difficult to spot, so investors should be wary.
