Q: Hello, I have just read "Why It’s Almost Impossible to be a Passive Investor in Canada" by Ryan, very informative article. I realize that my portfolio is underweight in the industrials sector. Could you suggest 3 or 4 names in Canada and in the US respectively? I am looking for good mid or big cap companies with growing dividend if possible. This is for long term investment. Regards, Gervais

Q: NFI seems especially weak these days. The lower backlog seems a relatively minor issue. Of course investor sentiment is just something one has to live with. That being said do you think a strengthening Canadian dollar (against the US dollar) will impact revenues? The company seems well diversified with manufacturing facilities on both sides of the border. I suppose if they report revenue in Canadian dollars but receive it in US dollars there will be less revenue when the US dollars are converted into Canadian dollars. May I have your thoughts?
Thanks as always
Jim
