Q: More of a comment than a question. They announced on Thursday that they have refinanced their debt with RBC and paying out the Crown capital debt. Aside from the significant interest expense saving, I have found that if a bank like RBC gives a small company the thumbs up then this is almost always a good sign that the business prospects are improving.
Q: Hi Peter, follow up to your last answer on MAL, I know you like to see how companies and management fared during '08 (i.e. EPS). Did MAL do well during those times and what happened? Thx.
Q: Love PBH but have been reducing my position because it represents 20% of my portfolio and keeps going up. Should I keep selling this winner ?
Q: With the recent changes to the balanced equity portfolio is it now tech heavy or are you considering CLS Consumer Cyclical (Discretionary) to replace CGX because it is a hardware based business and not software?
Thank you.
Thank you.

Q: Further to a member's question concerning the high cost of board-lot purchases of (for example) GOOG: I have never had any problems buying (or selling) as little as a few shares of GOOG, CSU, etc. The only oddity I've noticed is that my bid (or ask) doesn't show up on the exchange's order book, which might have the effect of providing no reference price for the other side of the trade. But others' brokers may handle these differently (I'm using TDW.)
Q: Any reason for the pull back today?

Q: Could you please give me your thoughts on The Horizons Medical Marijuana Life Sciences ETF (TSX: HMMJ). It is an ETF that will be offerred by Horizon this Thursday. It has a fairly high MER of 0.75. Might be a safe way to hold a basket of marijuana stocks. Here is a link to an article about it http://business.financialpost.com/investing/marijuana-etf-the-most-scrutinized-fund-that-weve-ever-launched-horizons-ceo-says
Q: Hello all,
This is further to the question regarding BIP.UN and tax reporting. I have had this equity for several years and it is always, without exception, the last tax form I receive. As of yet, this year's (2016) has still not arrived.
Having said that, it is a very small problem. Annoying, yes, but nothing more.
So, some final points:
1. It is probably not tax-advantageous to keep in a taxable account in the first place. (That was the only room I had available when I chose to purchase it - my bad.)
2. Kept in a TFSA, RRSP or other tax-efficient entity I don't believe the tax issues apply so if you have, or can make room, put BIP.UN (this would apply to BEP.UN as well, I imagine) in one of those vehicles.
3. We are in the process of moving our BIP.UN into our TFSA's each year until it is all in TFSA's, thus our tax issues become smaller each year until they will finally go away.
4. BIP.UN has been a stellar performer in our portfolios both in terms of dividend cash flow and capital appreciation - it would take something really dramatic for us to part with it. I guess it would be one of our "core" holdings.
All the best!
Cheers,
Mike

Q: Re: Ian's earlier question - I have held both for several years in taxable accounts and have never had any issues getting the tax forms (T5013) on time. Complexity comes from the fact that the Distributions are not "Dividends" but include elements of Foreign Income, Interest, Return of Capital as well as Eligible Divs.....so tax hit is different than a dividend that qualifies for the DTC. This changes each year and and the T5013 lays all this out quite clearly. If you would like to get a breakdown of the elements of each historical distribution - there is also good summary on each of the firms websites. I am a very happy shareholder of both!
Q: with the 6.00 share price drop in the stock would it be one of the better buys right now or was there a good reason for the drop?
