                         Report of Independent Auditors

To the Shareholders and Board of Trustees of
TD Waterhouse Trust

In  planning  and  performing  our  audit  of  the  financial  statements  of TD
Waterhouse Dow 30 Fund (one of the funds comprising TD Waterhouse Trust) for the
year ended  October 31, 2000,  we  considered  its internal  control,  including
control  activities  for  safeguarding  securities,  to  determine  our auditing
procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements
and to comply with the requirements of Form N-SAR, and not to provide  assurance
on internal control.

The  management of TD  Waterhouse  Trust is  responsible  for  establishing  and
maintaining internal control. In fulfilling this  responsibility,  estimates and
judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related
costs of control.  Generally,  internal  controls  that are relevant to an audit
pertain to the entity's objective of preparing financial statements for external
purposes  that are  fairly  presented  in  conformity  with  generally  accepted
accounting  principles.  Those internal  controls  include the  safeguarding  of
assets against unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition.

Because of inherent limitations in internal control, misstatements due to errors
or fraud may occur and not be detected.  Also,  projections of any evaluation of
internal control to future periods are subject to the risk that internal control
may become  inadequate  because of changes in conditions,  or that the degree of
compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters
in  internal   control  that  might  be  material   weaknesses  under  standards
established  by the  American  Institute  of  Certified  Public  Accountants.  A
material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or more
of the specific internal control  components does not reduce to a relatively low
level the risk  that  errors  or fraud in  amounts  that  would be  material  in
relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and not be detected
within a timely  period by employees in the normal  course of  performing  their
assigned  functions.  However,  we noted no matters involving  internal control,
including control activities for safeguarding securities, and its operation that
we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above at October 31, 2000.

This  report is  intended  solely  for the  information  and use of the Board of
Trustees and management of TD Waterhouse  Trust, and the Securities and Exchange
Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than
these specified parties.
