Q: https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2018/05/03/premier-calls-allegations-against-nursing-homes-disturbing-and-upsetting.html

Would this type of allegation lead you to cut half the position or perhaps entirely? I have quite a large (overweight position) in SIA and have it as a DRIP for a number of years. I have about 40 percent of my position in free shares and want to continue to build my portfolio around the aging demographic. I have considered selling some SIA and putting a bit more into SIS as well as Park Lawn, but the dividend income being re-invested has done me well and provides a nice safety net on a long term hold. THoughts?

Q: Greetings.

Can I get you guys to comment on Andrew Peller and Park Lawn earnings? It looks like Park Lawn would have been a significant beat excluding the "one time" costs, and Andrew Peller fairly solid results?

Any red flags regarding earnings, and would you consider adding to a 3% position on ADW.a and a 2% position on PLC?

Thanks again. Please feel free to charge 2 question credits for the above 2 questions.

Q: Hi,
I would like your thoughts on these 2 companies, StorageVaultCanada Inc. SVI.V & Park Lawn Corp. PLC.TO.
It would be a small % in our portfolio.
The current price for : SVI.V $2.33 & PLC.TO $18.45 Are they worth buying at this price? if not what will be their entry price.
Thanks,
Rosina

Q: Hi there

Best of the holidays to you and staff in the office. I have really enjoyed being a member the last 3 years, learned a whole lot, adjusted my investing approach accordingly, and thus become a much more effective investor.

Wondering about Park Lawn. I own a part position now and am looking to increase my stake somewhat. Just wondering if you could give a breakdown on its valuation. Do you see good value there or would you wait for a lower entry point?

Much thanks
Stuart

Q: PARK LAWN CORP have contracts with 2 companies namely Edgemark Developments and Nine To Seven Limited with both controlled by directors of Park Lawn. This seems like a conflict of interest to me since the Directors will be biased to use their companies and not shop around.
Secondly Park Lawn lends money to these 2 companies to buy PLC shares at a low interest rate payable on maturity far in the future. I think this practice is hurting share holders. Not only are they giving our money away but at the same time are diluting our shares.


I would appreciate your view on my objections.

Q: What is your opinion on Park Lawn Corp, a cemetery and funeral home operator that is growing by acquisition?

I currently hold a 2.0% weighting of this company in my portfolio. Considering that this is a small company and that I am a risk tolerant investor, does this weighting seem appropriate. In light of a recent acquisition in Michigan, I have been considering bumping it up to 3-4%.

Thanks.

Q: Hi team. I'm looking for long term growth stories. Particularly ones that will continue to benefit from an aging boomer population. I'm thinking of things like retirement homes, health care services, funeral services, etc… Do you have any recommendations for these types of investments? Thanks for your continued efforts.
