5i Research Answer:

The ETF universe is quite vast, and themes range from: broad market ETFs, specific themes (biotech, semiconductors, innovation), factor styles (growth, conservative, dividend yield, buybacks, low volatility), sectors (utilities, tech, discretionary, etc.), geography (Europe, India, North America, etc.), and more. 

From a general standpoint, we feel that the broad market ETFs typically have the most attractive MERs, have strong liquidity, and are typically the most robust over different market cycles. 

For the S&P 500, we like the SPY, denominated in Canadian dollars, we like ZSP. 

For the Nasdaq 100, we like QQQ, denominated in Canadian dollars, we like ZNQ.
