I'm young and from Canada, how should I invest my money now to insure I'm financially set when I'm older?

You could start by opening a tax-free savings account through your bank. You can contribute up to $5000 per year into your TFSA, which you can then use to invest in things like bonds, GICs, mutual funds, etc.  Any income earned on your investments will not be taxed.
