Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to TD Waterhouse Group, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the Registration Statement on
Form S-1 (the "Registration Statement") filed by the Company with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), relating to the issuance by the Company of up
to 36,800,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (together with
any additional shares of such stock that may be issued by the Company and
registered pursuant to Rule 462(b) (as prescribed by the Commission pursuant to
the Act) in connection with the offering described in the Registration
Statement, the "Shares").
We have examined the Registration Statement and a form of the share
certificate which has been filed with the Commission as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement. We also have examined the originals, or duplicates or
certified or conformed copies, of such records, agreements, instruments and
other documents and have made such other and further investigations as we have
deemed relevant and necessary in connection with the opinions expressed herein.
As to questions of fact material to this opinion, we have relied upon
certificates of public officials and of officers and representatives of the
Company.

TD Waterhouse Group, Inc June 21, 1999
In such examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures,
the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of all documents
submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all
documents submitted to us as duplicates or certified or conformed copies, and
the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents.
Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the qualifications and
limitations stated herein, we are of the opinion that:
1. When the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") has taken
all necessary corporate action to authorize and approve the issuance of the
Shares, and upon payment and delivery in accordance with the applicable
definitive underwriting agreements approved by the Board, the Shares will
be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
2. We hereby confirm our opinion appearing in the Prospectus included
in the Registration Statement under the caption "Material U.S. Federal
Income Tax Consequences To Non-U.S. Holders."
We are members of the Bar of the State of New York and we do not express
any opinion herein concerning any law other than the Delaware General
Corporation Law and the federal law of the United States.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion letter as Exhibit 5 to the
Registration Statement and to the use of our name under the captions "Legal
Matters" and "Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences To Non-U.S. Holders"
in the Prospectus included in the Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
