Q: Hi Peter & team, In the November 17th edition of Member News you say: "Tim Hortons when its merger with Burger King is approved. The new entity will be classified as a US company". I currently have a position in THI in a non-registered account. Because dividends of US companies are treated as interest, I am thinking of selling THI and replace it by another Canadian company in the same sector. Is it a good idea, may be not? Which same sector Canadian company should I buy to replace THI? Thanks, Gervais

Q: Boup Group has proven to be a great investment over the last couple of years. I anticipate that this winter's weather, if we enjoy polar vortex activity, should see some bitter weather and a brisk business for the auto repair industry. However, taking a longer term view, I have to wonder how the technological developments in self-parking, danger alarms, back-up obstruction sgnals etc. will impact the accident rate and therefore the auto repair business.

Q: Hi guys,
I'm planning to finally dip my toes in the mining sector after the tax sell-off in December that I'm going to hold for 3+ years. Can you suggest a favorite gold miner company please with a good current evaluation, strong balance sheet and if it pays a dividend that's definitely a plus!
Thanks,
Richard

Q: Peter I wish I had bought this at $5 or $6 when all the BNN guys and bank "experts" were saying fully valued . You are still very high on it so you.feel there is still good growth there aside from take out potential?
Q: Hello 5i team
Have recently read an article outlining price objectives as stated by a number of brokerage houses (Scotia, PI & Laurentian to name a few) and it appears they have all downgraded their expectations for CVL with 6 research analysts rating it a hold and 4 others a buy.
I have held shares for some time with a small position and am under water a tad. Can you please comment on recent results and what you see moving forward? (as best as possible) And would you take a small loss here or hang tight while looking forward to the next agricultural cycle?
Thanks for all you do

Q: I purchased this stock on the recommendation made by Peter on BNN. The stock has performed well and is rated as a buy, but what puzzles me is the considerable insider selling of the stock. Your comments would be appreciated. Thanks, Bill

The wood and cement segments look strong and stronger going forward. Or do you see a less riskier trade in the IT space.Also looking at Svc-T SANDVINE. The ROE, ROI, ROA looks good.

Q: Hello Peter
Tim Hortons currently has a direct share purchase and dividend reinvestment plan which is administered through Computershare. My grandchildren hold shares of THI through this plan. If the THI merger with Burger King is approved my grandchildren will have to elect whether to receive cash for their shares or exchange them for shares in the new company, or a combination of both. It is not currently known whether the new company will continue the dividend reinvestment plan. If they elect to receive cash are you aware of any other Canadian company that allows direct purchase of shares and dividend reinvestment for investors who are not already shareholders? The grandchildren's accounts are not large enough to warrant opening brokerage accounts.
Thank you
David

Q: I understand the Q3 report showed a dip in new car sales which spooked the market a bit. With the sharp decrease in the oil and gas market, I wonder if the Prairies will experience a downturn (or sideways) movement in the economy, or at least give the perception of tougher times. New car sales might be the first to suffer. This could cause some negative news for the next few quarters. On the other hand ACQ might pick up some cheap acquisitions. I love the company but I wonder if it might be best to get out until the dust settles. I would appreciation your advice.
