Q: A question on Telesat
What are your thoughts on the recent news and run up in this stock... I have always been interested in this and MDA and others in the space sector. Can you provide and updated view on Telesat considering the MDA contract and huge cost savings and specifically the TAM for the LEO satellites seems to be Massive.
Also what other companies would be classified as competitors specifically for Telesat's focus on non-consumer enterprise, government, aviation industries? Starlink is eventually going to offer those services but they focus on residential currently. Thanks!

Q: Hi

I'm confused with this one. 5I considers PLC an Income stock, yet it has a yield of less than 2%. It is a perennial acquirer which I think of as a rollup strategy. If you look at it's 5 year stock performance, it is not impressive having reached $40+ and then tumbling back to 23 which is where it was 5 years ago. Admittedly, it is in a sector that will always have market demand, but other than that, what is the attraction?

Q: This service sounds very interesting, is there somewhere to go and learn more? The big question I have, can you link say your Questrade accounts so things are automatically input, and updated, or do you have to manually input your holdings?

Q: Good morning,

I'm looking at buying an ETF that tracks the S&P 500 for my TFSA account and am considering VFV.CA.

Withholding tax is a concern and given that VFV.CA holds US stocks, would there be a withholding tax on any of the dividends distributed and if so would you kindly recommend a few other similar ETFs that track the S&P 500 where the withholding tax is not a concern. Thank you.

Q: You last looked at this in 2022 and didn't sound very good. But the stock stopped going down in October and has been driving higher since then, especially over the last few months. Has something changed with Comcast's fortunes?

Q: For a non registered account which etfs would your recommend for broad US and for tech exposure and what max weighting would you recommend allocating to these 2 etfs? Would these 2 etfs be the best for US exposure for the TFSA also or would you suggest different ones?
Thanks for your help.

Q: AAPL has had a great run.

This is probably a non-obvious question what any leads on what would be an AAPL-like stock circa pre-iPhone?
