Q: A recent BNN interview appeared to suggest that ecn had or was becoming a facilitator of finance rather than engaging in direct exposure to the finance obligations, collecting fees for arranging the engagement, and the TD notes on this Co indicate that it is becoming an originator and asset manager, which to me seems to indicate a similar strategy. Would this not make ecn more economically sensitive to the sectors it participated in and less affected by the passage of interest rates and how would this affect your appraisal of ECN?

Q: Hello Peter / Ryan and Team,

Looking at COV. Seems like there is a huge difference between Shares Outstanding and Floating shares. Does this mean that there are a lot of shares locked by insiders? When are these scheduled to be able to be traded and is that a concern for the future with the stock up so much? With the large run up lately, do you still feel it is a good buying opportunity or would you wait for a pull back as the chart gives me a bit of a pause.

Thanks for all you do,

Wes
