Q: I am having trouble finding the answer to my tax question. I hope you can help. My husband and I were joint owners of a rental building which we sold in 2016. There are considerable capital gains. I have realized capital losses from past years (from sale of shares)that I can apply to my portion of the capital gains. Can I transfer some of these to my husband to apply to his portion of the capital gains on the rental building? He does not have any capital losses. Thank you for your help.

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
I realize you do not cover USA stocks! I do not need any in-depth analysis. The stock spiked up 15.7% today and I do not see any announcements. I am wondering if they got a new contract or just because Europe may have better economic growth. Can you see anything on the "wire"?
Thanks for your help...

Q: Hi,

I recently sold cineplex for a nice gain in a taxable account, and i am holding
Sylogist with a loss almost equal to my gain on cineplex.
I am thinking I should sell my Sylogist to offset part
of my capital gain on Cineplex with a view to buying back
Sylogist (or not) after 30 days. Is there anything wrong with this plan ? If Sylogist is till not performing after 30 days would Vermillion (VET) make a suitable replacement. My only other energy holding is PKI (sorry the name escapes me right now)

Thank you gor considering my question and your advice.

Thank you

Q: I am a 21 year old investor with a long investment horizon. In my TFSA, both CPH and MRE have stagnated and I am thinking of selling these and moving on. Would you endorse this move and if so, could you recommend your top 2 names (any sector) to replace them?

Thank You!
