Q: Could you confirm that dividends of companies domiciled in Canada, regardless of the exchange they are listed on, and paid and received in US dollars still qualify for the Canadian dividend tax credit? As such, I assume that there would not be any US withholding tax (non-reg accounts). It would only be the US dividends from US corporations that would have 15% withheld?

Thank you.

Q: My broker has approached me to purchase the convertible debentures of Automotive Finco Corp He thinks that it close to another Carfinco

The yield is very tempting

What are your thoughts They have just increased the dividend Do they have the cash flow to support the dividend Would the common stock be less risky

Would Autocanada be a better buy

I would appreciate your insight

Q: Just a suggestion - we often see new members join, buy a portion of the portfolio and then are disappointed by the short term results. It may be helpful if you provided new members an overview of your philosophy, the portfolios, and the 'portfolio' approach to investing. i know this would have been helpful when i first joined.post if you wish!

Cheers
