Q: I have to sell some of my shares in my registered LIF Account by the end of the year. Which of the two mentioned above should I lighten up on. XCB looks flat and has only a small dividend. I would prefer to keep my CSH.UN for long term.
What is your opinion and reasoning.
Thank you!

Q: I've got excess cash in my RRSP, waiting to be deployed in the event of a downturn. I'm thinking of converting some of it to bonds while I wait, so as to earn a bit more than a high interest savings account can offer. I was wondering if you could recommend a few ETFs for that purpose. The ideal bond ETFs would be safe, rapidly deployable to cash, with a decent yield and likely to become more attractive investments themselves in the event of a downturn. Thanks for any suggestions. If you could add a short note about what would be the main risk to those ETFs, I'd appreciate it.

Q: I am about to manage my grandkids resp. They have about 52000 to eventually cover the 10 and 6 year old. Monthly contributions of 300 are being made with some "top ups" as available. I would like to have them invest about 20-25% in individual stock or stocks and the balance in ETFS. How should I approach the ETF portion and do you have recommendations?

Q: My wife's adviser is recommending the following mutual fund for her RRSP. Could I get your opinion on the Edgepoint Global portfolio Mutual fund. Fund code- EDG100. MER around 2.13% about 6 billion under management- past returns have been strong. I am always cautious when I see such high MER's. Do you think this is a good one fund solution, if you went with ETF's instead of this mutual fund which ones would you recommend?
Thank you!
