Q: Hi 5i team,

Now that shareholders have approved the plan with Loblaws what happens next. The current price is $3.09 with little volume. Documentation I received mentions that shareholders would receive money for the shares next year at 3.10 per share. From a tax perspective it would be better to receive the money this year. Does one typically sell at market 3.09 in this situation or wait tying up the money which could be reallocated.

Thanks Mike

Q: Given that Telus has been working closely with QHR; I had been wondering even before the Loblaw offer why Telus would not just buy QHR. Is Telus an aquisitive sort of company? What are the odds on a last minute offer from Telus? Is QHR worth more than $3.10/share?
Thank you for your honest advice and opinions

Q: I would appreciate your suggestions in what to do with this stock. Are my options selling or acquiring Loblaw stock or is acquiring Loblaw stock an option? If I sell I will have a nice capital gain which I will have to declare as I hold it in a non registered account. If I were to acquire Loblaw stock and then sell Loblaw in a few months does a capital gain apply? Thank You.

Q: You guys do an amazing job and I really enjoyed your appearance on BNN recently Peter. QHR has had a big run up lately and has been hitting all time highs. Any reason for the recent gains? I have not been able to find any news. I know they are reporting in the next week or two, and is this just market anticipation for a good quarter? Will the stock tank if they disappoint vs. expectations or are you comfortable with adding more today? QHR is currently 3% of my portfolio. Thanks.

Q: Hello Peter,
I have a very small position in QHR within my registered account and some available cash. I could either buy some more and have a small position or sell and use the proceeds and cash to take a small position in Tio Networks (TNC) instead. Or I could just have very small positions in both. With your past experience in portfolio management what would you suggest?
Regards.

Q: Could you recommend a company that is addressing the issue of moving the medical field to electronic storage. I here that Canadian doctors are behind the times in record keeping and continue to use paper files as I see in my own doctor's office. A blog mentioned Telus is involved in this space but not sure if that's true.
