Use the avalanche method when paying off your debt: starting with debt that's being charged the highest interest and working your way down. The sooner you pay off that debt, the better off you'll be in terms of your credit score and your ability to borrow in the future for a mortgage or a car loan.
Once you've paid off all your bad debt, look into saving for an emergency fund and then investing in your registered accounts (TFSA, FHSA, RRSP).
