Q: Hi Peter and Team, regarding Constellation, CSU, sorry to add yet another question here but would you please provide the estimates that you are comparing to compared to the actual results so that we can see what 'consensus was off a bit'? The estimates I get are usually different compared to what you usually provide and therefore have more faith in what you provide from your Bloomberg terminal, thanks.

This way we're all seeing actual results compared to the same estimate/consensus numbers you are comparing to. Thanks again!

Q: Hi, if someone beat me to it just ignore this, but I'm sure everyone is curious on your take on CSU quarterly earnings. At first glance they look good to me but I'm not sure how they compare to the "consensus" numbers. But if they are now at $2.50/share in earnings per quarter, isn't that now just a PE of 20 annualized?

Q: Hi Peter.Thanks for all your good work. I did a comparison between Corus Entertainment (CJR.B) and DHX and found on every investment criteria CJR.B seemed to be a superior investment. I understand the greater diversification and larger cap aspects of Corus. Also they may be more at risk from the moves towards video on demand. Still, I fail to understand why DHX keeps going up in price while Corus doesn't, given both have a childrens'programming focus. Any thoughts?

Q: CSU

Fastest turnaround ever on my question about the CSU AGM - thank you. But if they have not announced the AGM, and I only know about it via 5i as being in their lawyer's office which I don't know, and assuming they don't return my phone call I guess I am out of luck? I understand Mr. Leonard's legendary privacy concerns but trying to come to the grips with the legality/morality/transparency of this approach. Any further comments are appreciated and thanks.

Q: Good morning,
What do you suggest (1st pick, 2nd pick) from CSU, BAD, STN and AYA today to hold for 3 yrs or so if I'm looking for growth but lower risk is important to me?

Q: WIN announced pretty good earnings this AM in addition to some good announcements in the quarter and a change to the legal expense risk sharing model. At this price seems to be good value even if they don't sell the company in the short term. Thoughts?

Q: I have some shares in Badger Daylight (BAD) for the last couple of weeks the stock has been going down from 70 cents to $1.30 per day. I cannot find any reason for this decline can you please investigate and find out why this happening. When companies are doing well they put out lots of info but when they are declining they fail to give you any info why. Thank You. Bob

Q: STN - Stantec

5i April 11 comment mentioned "trading a bit unusual" on "relatively low volume.

Today STN dropped down to it's lowest point of the year again on very low volume and during a period when markets in general are fairly positive.

It's been a steady performer since mid 2012. Anything new that could account for the weakness thus far this year?

thanks for all you do

Gord

Q: AYA... your favorite subject by now I am sure

I read your report and thank for that.... one comment which stood out for me was;

"We think AYA will eventually have to start ‘playing nice’ with the markets and release guidance at year-end to avoid this sort of decline."

Can you please provide additional explanation for this comment? Does this infer there is information management is not comfortable revealing? Or am I reading far too much into this .

Thank You

Gord
