Q: Hello

I noted in one of your responses that Brookfield Corp pays dividend in USD.
If so, do we have to hold the stock in USD Currency, in order to receive dividends in USD ?

Also, are the USD Dividends received from Brookfield Corp, eligible for Canadian Dividend Tax Credit or the dividends have to be received in CAD, in order to qualify for the Tax Credit ? ( So, we should move the BN to CAD side of the portfolio ? ).

Thank You

Q: I am needing to raise some cash and decided to trim my financials. I hold GSY (4.2%), V (5.6%), BNS (3.66%) , TD (3.65%), PRL(3.57%) and RY (2.51%) Total 23.19% My first thought is to eliminate BNS or TD. Alternatively I could eliminate both as I sense I am overweight financials with this basket. Given this mix which Bank would you lean towards eliminating, BNS or TD? Would you be comfortable letting them both go?

Q: I am thinking of adding/increasing my position in an insurance company and have found that the combined ratio for both MFC and SLF are more than 100 while CB and TSU’s combined ratio is in the low 80. Does that mean MFC and SLF are not as profitable as CB and TSU? Which is a good buy currently? Thanks,
