Q: Hi Team! My portfolio is based around your Model Equity Balanced portfolio. I own quite a few shares of SNC as part of employer plan.I own Savaria, would it be ok to add WSP for industrial exposure, or is there another name you would suggest, with dividend of course. Thanks Sam

Q: I was listening to someone talking about the dire propane situation going forward in the U.S.
I didn't really get much of the picture, I tuned in precisely because I hold Superior Propane and wondered if I should look into the issue, but better still ask your opinion of that statement. Is there a reason for concern? Thank you.

Q: Pho just news released ~40 minutes before closing that they have reached a settlement for their patent litigation. The news looks very positive to me on a number of fronts (closure, both a 50% reduction in royalty rate and duration, and no more litigation expenses). Do you agree? What do you think of this settlement? Did the market simply not have time to digest the news before close?
Thanks

Q: I hold Cineplex in my balanced portfolio. And I also have an income portfolio. With your news of Cineplex coming out of the 5iR Balanced Portfolio, I'm wonder if you would consider it as an inclusion in an Income Portfolio if the income portfolio was to be expanded by a few more positions, knowing your preference is for 20, or whether it would just be added to a list of entities for consideration for an income portfolio......Thanks....Tom

Q: Peter, I have some cash to add to either my Kinaxis or Enghouse positions in my TFSA. Both have done nicely over the past 6 months. ENGH, especially, has recent momentum. Which would you suggest to add to for a long-term hold. Thanks!

Q: Hi,
I'm 60 years old and have $135,000 cash in my in my RRSP brokerage account that I would like to put to work. I have a defined benefit pension plan, however, I plan on drawing down on this money in approximately 5 years. Would you suggest I mirror your balanced or income portfolio? Or go with a diversified ETF portfolio? Your suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Q: Hi Team - XTC has been a frustrating stock. It's a half billion dollar company with a low valuation, but it's price has languished below 12 dollars. Do you have any insight into why it's such a thin trader, and why there's resistance to moving to a higher valuation? The conspiracy theorist in me thinks that it's pretty easy to manipulate a stock with such low volume.

Thanks for your long term and very valued service!
