I do prefer to keep income trusts and ETF's inside registered accounts to keep my accounting a little simpler. They are often the last to send you a T3 and personally I like to have my accounting prepared well in advance of the deadline.
However, some income trusts can be quite tax efficient in a non-registered account (high % ROC) so you'd have to way to pros and cons.
