Q: Hello Peter and Ryan,
Cannimed has provided the following press release
http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20171130006170/en/Actions-Words-Aurora-CEO%E2%80%99s-Actions-Reveal-Aurora
which basically illustrates insider selling by Aurora executives on November 28, 2017 while Aurora is in the midst of a takeover of Cannimed.
How is this recent information on insider selling obtained? I am thinking of adding to Savaria Corp giving it total of 5 percent weight and Knight to 7 percent given its recent weakness. Any comments please. Thanks again

Q: Hello Peter and Ryan,
Yangarra resources was going up while other oil stocks were going down. However, today Yangarra Resources barely moved much when other oil stocks surged given the news on OPEC production cut. Any comments? Also, Savaria surged a bit today. Was there any news? In general, when a particular stock stays within a narrow range when all the others in the sector are moving up alot, what does it mean for that particular stock? For example, today MedLeaf hovered around 1 percent range whereas the other cannibis stocks including the ETF HMMJ surged considerably. The same was true the day before when the cannibis stocks were down , MedLeaf stayed in the one percent range. Thank you.

Q: Hi guys, I'm looking at your response to 'who's likely to suffer when NAFTA gets torn up' (which seems increasingly likely)... I have held these for a long time and been VERY happy with all of them, but is it time to trim them down? Do you think the NAFTA threat is sufficiently priced in? I'd love to get your thoughts on each one. Thanks! PS -- you can ding me for 5 questions :-)
