Q: Hello,
My holding of Waste Connections has increased substantially in value. The stock price is slipping and there seem to be a number of concerns with debt and return on capital. Your detailed comments would be appreciated.

Are there some industrials with better future prospects? What industrials could WCN be replaced with and why would they be any better?

Thank you,
V

Q: I bought GSY at its peak. Is it time to dollar cost average now or would you wait for the price to drop more?

How do you see the stock price move if interest rates stay stable until mid 2024?

Q: Reading through the questions and answers on a regular basis gives a good idea of a lot of the Canadian companies you favour as investments, such as CSU/LMN/TOI, GSY, SHOP, BN/BAM, SU/CNQ/TOU, WSP, TFII, SLF, ATD, BYD, TRI. I'm wondering if you have any seldom discussed Canadian stocks that you like, small cap, higher risk stocks OK. Some names that people might not be as familiar with that have some good upside potential. Companies producing good financial results that perhaps aren't fully recognized in the stock market.

Q: I was very successful with my investment in Kirkland Lake Gold a few years ago, and I wonder if any of that success will rub off on these two junior golds, due to their connection to KL.

KRR just reported decent quarterly results, and I like the fact that Tony Makuch, the former CEO of KL has recently joined the board of KRR. I believe that Makuch played a major role in the success of KL, and I was disappointed when he was kicked out at AEM, probably because of a culture clash.

Eric Sprott has recently made a big purchase of NFG shares, to add to his already big holding. He also played a big part in the success of KL, I believe.

I'd be very interested in your take on these two companies.
