Q: I see you like Trisura for 2022. Answering a question on March 17 you acturally included it as one of your top picks for this year. My question is why do you have such confidence in the future of this company. Also, do you see it doing well this year or is it the kind of company that one has to buy and hold for 5 years to see stong advances in its price appreciation. Thanks as always for your opinion.

Q: Can you explain the SHOP price disparity on the US and CAD exchanges that occurred recently? Reference your answer to a member question yesterday 'SHOP had an unusual spike close on Friday and was up $122. Today it is down $110 and still up over two days. On the TSX where there was no spike the stock is down $20 only today.'

Q: This was one you had liked in the past, and certainly with tightness continuing with chips, and therefore reduced new automobile supply, this used car auctioneer I thought would have held up better in these volatile markets. Are you still as keen on this one, or would you use this holding as a source of funds for other ideas. Essentially, is it a 'soft' hold at this point?

Thank you as always...

Q: I am looking to possibly add to GSY. I am comparing to TD and BNS in the following order: GSY,TD,BNS with PB Ratio: 2.9, 1.9, 1.7; PE Ratio: 8.8, 12.7, 11.6; DIV(%): 2.6, 3.5, 4.3. Would you think the disparity in the PE Ratio may continue with GSY? It looks like a buy for growth but (as usual) I am probably missing something. I currently have both TD and GSY. Thoughts please. Thanks Dan.

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,

We're currently overweight Technology. Given this information from "Simply Wall Street", is this a "red flag" for Enghouse, and might this be the one to let go? We also hold CSU, KXS, and TOI. Our gain in ENGH is 70%, which pales in comparison to CSU's gain of 401% (thank you 5i for continually recommending Constellation!) ENGH and CSU were purchased around the same time, but KXS was purchased later (up 101%) and TOI of course has been held only since the "spin-off" (but still up 39%).

Maybe I'm reading too much into this insider selling, but your opinion is important to me.

"Independent Director recently sold CA$814k worth of stock
On the 16th of March, Reid Drury sold around 20k shares on-market at roughly CA$40.68 per share. This was the largest sale by an insider in the last 3 months. Insiders have been net sellers, collectively disposing of CA$2.4m more than they bought in the last 12 months"

Thanks for your insight and assistance.
