Q: On Feb 13 “Boston Pizza International Inc. announced today that it has declared and paid dividends in the amount of $5,000,000 to the shareholders of record on February 12, 2014”
I am wondering 1) as Boston Pizza International Inc is a private company does this information need to be disclosed? and 2) how does this effect Boston Pizza Royalty (BPF.UN)
Thanks
John

Q: Hello Team 5i,
I have a colleague who is just starting to put some money back into an RRSP account that he had emptied out to buy his house. For now, he has 1000 dollars in it and I promised him I would ask your advice for how he should invest it. He does not expect to touch this money and whatever else he puts in there in the future for at least 25 to 30 years. He would like to take a growth strategy. What do you suggest for him? Thank you in advance for your help.

Q: What are your thoughts regarding Equity Financial's (EQI's) news release today? The news that mortgage portfolio growth will be "nominal"/flat in 2014 is quite negative, is it not? Is it your view that the negative impact of this news will be offset by Smoothwater buying up the shares?
