Q: Not a question - just a note repeating the business news that four (4) insiders bought recently at around $23 for a total cost of about $350,000. Not big money but not exactly chump change.

Q: just a comment to add to genes misery over rbc investing, i am a seasoned investor using rbc investing, been doing this for 25 years and rbc is by far the worst.
what they did with their watchlist is beyond stupidity, it is idiotic, i would love to switch to someone else but i have 15 accounts with them and switching would be even more misery. dave

Q: We are seeking income (although capital retention is also important) and wonder if we would be wise to sell IPL which you don't seem big on and replace it with BPY.UN which you seem to like. The sector is not too important as the portfolio has a good balance of pipelines and REIT's. Both companies mentioned have a very good yield.

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
RET. is going to buy back shares at a price significantly higher than current market. Please tell me all the reasons it would do this. Of course the obvious is that it for the moment increases value for loyal share holders who are seriously under water. However I wonder about the long term. Your thoughts please. Thanks!
