Donald Flemming became the Conservative Federal Finance Minister in June of 1957. The RRSP was enacted in 1957. Can anyone tell me on what date the act to amend the Income Tax Act to allow RRSPs passed third and final reading? I'm looking for the actual 50th anniversary or birthday of the RRSP which is sometime during this calendar year (2007). Thank you.

Oops...I did a little further research only to find that Walter Harris, Liberal Finance Minister until June 20, 1957, might have introduced the RRSP. Nevertheless, the RRSP was born in 1957. So...just on what date did the RRSP become law? Was it during the Liberal or Conservative watch? Thanks again.
