Q: Hi 5i, I was listening to a steel analyst stating that "value added steel manufacturers" like Russel metals would be exempt from steel tarrifs. I realize the companies that actually make steel and the steel outputs for downstream manufacturing will be taxed. If this is true then aren't companies like the one mentioned or DRX or HPS also exempt? Now if anything manufactured in Canada is taxed then all bets are off.

Thx

Q: Given the chance of a second Trump Presidency and the likelihood of tariffs, loss of democracy and full on graft and favouritism what Canadian companies are likely to thrive or at a minimum survive? Is there a defensive strategy that would work for either result in the election or is it one direction with Trump and another with Biden?

Q: Algoma recently undertook a Substantial Issuer Bid where they will be retiring 28% of their shares outstanding. What your thoughts on how this impacts the outlook for the shares and warrants going forward ? I don't recall seeing a company reduce their share count by so much at once before.

Thanks
