5i Research Answer:
ZGRO owns Canadian ETFs owning US foreign securites. XGRO holds a mix of Canadian and US ETFs. VGRO owns only Canadian ETFs.
None of these are particularly advantageous for taxes, since none hold shares directly. All are very similar with ~80% equity exposure. Performance is near-identical over five years (10.17%, 10.24%, 10.05%). None are particularly 'better' in any of the noted circumstances noted in the question.
