Q: I am considering selling TD Bank and buying either Bank of Nova Scotia or Capital Power CPX. TD has had a good run and I think BNS may provide more upside over the next 2 to 3 years. I also like Capital Power for it's 4.8% dividend and it's growth prospects over the next few years. For capital growth potential and dividend growth which would you prefer between BNS and CPX?
Thanks for your help,

Q: Good Morning Peter and Team,
Regarding Fiera Capital (FSZ- TSX): When I look at the Ink Insider Report I see that there is a large amount of insider ownership. Such as:
- National Bank
- Goodman and Co.
- JC Clark
- Special and common shares owned by Fiera Capital insiders
It would appear that the vast majority of the outstanding shares are held by "strong hands" so the public float would be fairly small. This would explain to some extent the lack of analyst coverage and low trading volume. Paladin Labs was tightly held as well and we all know how that eventually turned out. Would you agree that there is hidden value within FSZ and that one should behave like the insiders and wait patiently for the value to surface ??? Thank you. DL

Q: re: Canada's big banks
Seeking Alpha commented today that Moody's lowered Canadian Banks outlook to negative.
"Affirming the ratings of Canada's largest banks, Moody's cuts their outlook from stable to negative, thanks to the government's plans to implement a "bail-in" regime (i.e., creditors to take a haircut) for systemically important lenders."
I have a 5% position in TD and have done quite well with an excellent dividend. Is this something I should be concerned about moving forward?
Thanks for all you do
Gord
