Q: What is your overview of this chronically under whelming company. Will mobile hydrogen always remain the "next big power source of the future". Ballard BLD always seems to have contracts and news releases but never moves much.
Thank you

Q: How can I invest in Blockchain?

Q: Peter and Team:

A neither of these two companies are "traditional" lumber companies, I was wondering how they might be affected by the upcoming SLA unrest. Do you see tariffs imposed on these products if a deal is not met by Oct.?

Thank you as always

Q: Is the share raise a good buy at 1.15 and the half warrant? Thank you . you have not steered me wrong as yet.

Q: Have some money to gamble. Would this be considered a casino stock? I have 5k in my TFSA. Buy or go to Vegas.

Q: Hello Peter, all of these CIX, POW and MFC have been on a down hill slid. My losses are 20% plus, should I keep holding them or should I take my losses and replace them. I like to have your advise, perhaps can recommend alternative replacements. Many thanks for your advise, regards, J.a.P. bURLINGTON

Q: Since you published your most recent report on March 8th. $51.6m of new equity capital has been raised by a fully oversubscribed bought deal at then current share price with about 765000 shares paid for by all directors and some senior officers. The new capital was apparently used to pay down drawn credit and despite the dilution share price has risen modestly. The Debt/Equity, Insider Ownership, Net Margin (probably got worse) and CR boxes in the sidebar in your report would probably all change. But the Fort McMurray fire has caused another $5m estimated cost to adjusted EBITDA, and I suspect you may regard the present condition of Newalta worse than 2009, which it survived. Bottom line - are you any more optimistic about survival than you were in your report?

Q: Blackpearl (Oil and Gas E & P) has had a nice runup over the last four months. It has been dropping, however, over the last month. I currently own some shares on which I have a loss. Are they a Hold, or a Sell?

Thank you!

Q: Hi
I'm looking for a handful of high yielding companies with a good balance sheet.
In what order would you rank the companies listed? Any other companies you really like that could also be included or preferred over these? Thank you.

Q: Do you know if all of Concordia's debt is in British Pounds from the Aimco acquisition? Do you know if the former owners payout happening this year is in British Pounds as well?

Thank you, Shane

Q: Recent news of mass closures by Caribbean customers of their Royal Bank accounts due to sudden imposition of service fees suggests to me that Royal Bank either doesn’t know or doesn’t care what its customers want. It sounds like an idea generated by greedy head-office bean counters with no knowledge of what is going on in the field. If retail banking is all about service, then once the reputation for customer service is lost, won’t the business inevitably suffer ? In your opinion is this event a “tipping point” for the Royal Bank, presaging a similar abandonment by Canadian customers ? Or will Canadian retail customers simply shrug and carry on with business as usual ?

Q: Peter and Staff
Current thoughts on this company and in particular what would cause a 5 percent drop today? Is thesis still intact?
Thanks for all you do- enjoy the weekend

Q: Hi, I'm replacing Prism Medical. What are your top 3 choices in this sector for income?

Would you consider AD as a health stock? It seems to have an interest in the medical field in Canada and the US.

Thanks

Q: Alaris is down on earnings. I sold earlier this month for a profit because I needed to sell something for some funds. I have too much DH,and was looking for a similar payout to DH to move some DH funds into. Is there any concern with AD, or is it a good time to buy it back?

Q: Hi Peter and Team!! Your introduction to the Money Saver Magazine indicated that the investment advisers have to disclose all investment fees to their clients. Do we specifically have to ask for them, or will they automatically be sent to us? Happy Canada Day to all!!! Tamara

Q: Hi, would the court decision today on Enbridge's proposed pipeline affect its stock?

Q: There is a pop today in the stock.$20 seems to be technical resistance.
I bought a 1% position at 15 should I sell and buy if it drops back. I dont normally like to trade. Its in a TFSA so no tax implications.

Thx
