Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I'm curious as to what you think of Dollarama now that it’s fallen so much. The company's growth forecast was lowered, but I’m thinking with high household debt and rising interest rates, many people might shop there out of necessity. Do you recommend it as a buy at these levels, and what are the risks associated with the stock? Do you think it’s better to wait until December to buy?

Q: Thanks for the News Update. and it mentions adding Industrials. For that last few weeks, I'm pondering adding industrial positions to my balanced, diversified US portfolio. I assigned a 15% weighting to the US industrial sector. My current positions are UTX at 4.6% weighting and FDX at 2.6% These two total 7.2% and as a result, I could add 7.8%. Please provide a few US names in this sector for my consideration, including adding to bring FDX to 4%........Appreciate you insights....Tom

Q: I have been reviewing your Income Portfolio. We have decided to bring all of the assets remaining with an Investment Company over to our non-registered account. Tired of paying the high fees and realizing that the rate of return is less than what we have been achieving ourselves over the past 5 years, in part due to the advice received through all the questions and answers on various topics we are able to read each day!
Considering the markets today, would you invest in the Income Portfolio in total ? Over what period of time? What changes you would make? Your thoughts are greatly appreciated.
