Q: I would appreciate your comments on the article in this morning's Globe and Mail on K Bro Linen which for the most part was negative. Could I please have your comments and your thoughts on the stock going forward. Thank You. Brian
Q: Could you please comment on K-Bro's recent results. The Market doesn't appear to be impressed as the stock is off the earlier highs. It's in my RSP and am in mainly for income with longer term growth to the dividend with some capital appreciation. Does this thesis still hold. I am slightly below a full position in my account and am looking to use this weakness as an opportunity to average up.
Q: I would like to add Real Estate in my portfolio,
i am looking at FCR first capital realty with a p/e of 18.3, a book value of 15.93 (below its trading value and Dream Properties D.un which is trading at less then book value, has a p/e of 9.6 , which would you recommend and why, it seems D.un is well underpriced at this time. thanks for the service, Jean

Q: Liquor Store. I am just wondering from a valuation perspective - it's starting to look like a good value play, and new management is in place to improve fundamentals. They are shifting towards products that sell faster/more common. Cf ratio < 10. P/S < 0.5, price to book ~0.8. Used a dcf valuation and I'm getting values in the range of $14-18 using different growth values (negative and positive) based on management targets. CF can cover the dividend but i wish they would cut it. What is your thoughts on this value play? I read the past comments and I've steered away from this stock!
Q: If you could only buy one of LNR or ACQ at today's prices, which would you choose? And would you buy now or wait until summer?

Q: Peter and all,
A pointed question on AVO: I took a small position at the end of 2013 and between the curious equity raise, the poorly handled executive exits and the rotation out of growth stocks I am down 36 per cent. But I still like the company's technology, and its most recent numbers were solid. The question: I am considering doubling down to cost average around $25. Would you do it if you were in my shoes? Or is there more rotation downside and/or taint to the stock from the various blunders?
Thank you!

Q: Re avigilon, i was told they started to capitalize the r&d , according to new accounting rules, did not tell the market, some people got spooked and some hedge funds were shorting the stock.
As for new purchases with all their cash, i am also told there is not much out there except small add ons.
I totally get that this stock is way kversold on fear etc, but could you comment on the above. Dave

Q: I also have a BAD question. Could you please comment on the recent organizational changes. It looks like someone internally is upset with the bottom line not reflecting the growth. Maybe the incentives are to big if they affect the financial statements that significantly. Maybe it's time to throw the shareholders a bone with a dividend increase. Mike
Q: Hi,
As many growth stocks are taking it on the chin, AVO and CSU, for example, why is it that ACQ isn't following suit?
Would you still recommend it at these levels?

Q: Hi Peter and Team,
Stantec's (STN) quarterly results seemed pretty solid to me (May 15). Did they meet expectations and do you have any comments on this quarter's report? I'm in for the long haul but would appreciate any comments you have at this point in time.
Thanks very much. Michael

Q: Do you see any further capital gains in FSZ, Scotiabank has a 12 month target at the current price, perhaps another stock in either of the portfolios has more potential.

Q: I have a question about Bank of Nova Scotia:
Given your last report was published Jun 2013, has anything changed since then? What are your thoughts on the planned divestiture of CI which was factored into your "Growth Plans" section.

Q: CSU - Constellation has been a great stock for me and is down 4% at the moment. Time to buy more or wait? Thanks so much.
Q: BAD - I have two problems. First, the $7.4M charge represents 33% of cash flow. Second, the DU liability is valued at another $21M as a current liability on the B/S. How do I estimate the cash flow impact of the plan as it continues to vest? Rewarding mgmt for stock performance is great and aligns their interests with mine, but when 33% of the operating cash flow disappears I become a little concerned. Plus I cannot get a handle on the future liability this plan represents.
