Student loan (the less the better), sponsor your family member to visit Canada (the much the better). As far as I know.

remember GIC, mutual funds, and etc. are INVESTMENT accounts, while regular checking/saving acocunts are not. so no matter how much money on your checking./saving account, it doesn't affect student loan at all.
