Q: Morning 5i,
I have done well with MDA in a TFSA account and would like to sell half and place the proceeds in a name or two (or three) that will benefit from Canada's recent emphasis on defense and both economic and northern sovereignty, as I believe these themes are both real and durable. Do you agree with the thesis and, if so, could you please provide a list of the names you think best placed to benefit from Canada's recent dramatic change in national philosophy?
Thanks 5i,
Peter

5i Research Answer:

MDA does have some defense characteristics so we might not exit too much if that is a theme of interest. CAE, HRX, FTG, BBD.B, PNG are other 'defense' stocks that could benefit. For stocks that may benefit from the recent government moves, please also see this answer from today.
