Q: Can you provide an updated assessment on SunLife (SLF)given recent results? I am looking to invest new money in blue chip dividend payor for son's TFSA account and also considering telcom (BCE) as an alternative.

Q: I have been trying to decide between SPB and CHE. My own thinking concerns an improving outlook for the chemicals industry. Do you agree that CHE would benefit more than SPB in this regard? Or do you think I should just look elsewhere entirely for growth in the chemicals sector? And can you comment on how SPB looks post-earnings? Thank-you very much.

Q: Hi Peter & Ryan, I'm looking to increase the technology content in my well balanced portfolio and was thinking of adding to existing positions in either DH Corp or Evertz Technology. I see they yield about the same, which would you add to right now keeping in mind I love companies who regularly increase their dividends. Thanks. Mario.
