Q: Hi Peter and Team,
Fortunate timing in light of yesterday's surprising election results: Our daughter-in-law learned just yesterday that her RRSP of $77000 and her LIRA of $22600 that previously contained under-performing high MER mutual funds were transferred (in cash, thank goodness) to her new accounts at iTrade which I will manage. Given today's volatility, and volatility going forward, what should she do? She is a "60% equity, 40% fixed-income" investor. Thanks so much in advance for your valued advice.

Thank you for excellent service.

Q: Do you think TRP would be a good buy just now?
Q: I own IPL and I was reviewing their Q3 release on Friday. I am having trouble reconciling their net debt to total capitalization ratio of 54.5%.
Based on their MD&A, total debt is $5,596.6, shareholder's equity is $3,269.9 and cash and cash equivalents is $70.4 and restricted cash if $105. This gives me a net debt to total capitalization ratio of 62.3% without including the restricted cash and 61.1% including the restricted cash. IPL Q3 reports 54.5% net debt to capitalization. Not sure where the error is. I inquired with the Company, but I haven't received an answer. I was wondering if you could provide one?
Thanks,
Jason

Q: I have an income portfolio that is patterned after your model income portfolio with a few differences. My portfolio currently has 21 positions with a 5% holding in each of BEP.un and BIP.un. Do have any thoughts on the merits of holding both these companies in the portfolio? Should one be sold? If so, which one and why? Thanks

Q: Looking towards an isolationist, anti-trade Trump presidency, which sectors in Canada do you think would suffer most? I'm thinking of autos and lumber, as a start. Are there any names on the balanced portfolio which would be particularly hard hit if NAFTA disappeared and their US exports were threatened? Ie, Magna, SJ.
Q: Hello 5i
With news of Teslas' further expansion into Europe, could I have your general view on the lithium sector? Any specific points to consider investigating for smaller caps with off-take agreements would be greatly appreciated. Finally, over what time frame would you think is a reasonable expectation for their maturing in this sector (for those that survive that is!).
Thank you in advance.

Q: Greetings Peter et all,
I am in need of your astute assistance.
Scenario:
A 58 year old with failing health. (10-15 years?)
With approx 600K to deploy...I require approx 4K tax free from dividend and stock appreciation to maintain a life.
Need appropriately safe investments to achieve above.
Small, safe, manageable, tax friendly.
Two example vehicles would be very much appreciated thank-you
Be well my friends

Q: PIF just released its Q3 results, kindly provide your expert perusal on the numbers reported. I sense that since they raised their dividend by 10%, things are likely progressing rather nicely in this company's turnaround. Thanks.
Q: can you account for the recent weakness in BEP.UN (Brookfield Renewable Energy Partners)
