Q: My question is regarding Alcanna and possible private liquor revenue opportunities coming from Ontario. The Ford goverment has made bullish comments on some alcohol sales privatization in the future, the budget is releasing April 11th. Alcanna would clearly be a benefactor in this because of their expertise in the field. From their recent M&D " Should any other jurisdiction in Canada permit the private retailing of alcohol on a basis similar to Alberta which would allow an appropriate return on capital, such as Ontario, we would anticipate opening stores in that jurisdiction" Today there was a bloomberg article quoting regarding Ontario's budgetplans. "Ontario's finance minister says the province will be moving ahead with an expansion of beer and wine sales into corner stores, big box stores and more grocery stores, promising the move will cut prices and prevent any potential privatization of the LCBO." Do you see this benefiting Alcanna at all or would this be a negative in my case if I had been hoping for some potential good news and growth in Ontario for liquor sales? I know you like the company and does this change anything for you?

Q: Thank you for your work on these stocks. Interesting!

With regard to ACB, I see a market cap of $9B an $50M in sales. I guess their 25% participation in CLIC comes from an equity raise ? If so, how did they justify the dilution to their shareholders ? I suppose having a retail platform ready to go and 25% of an operating company is a positive although bought with very expensive stocks... I am interested in your comments. Not sure if my reasoning is correct. Also, with 25% ownership of CLIQ, are they now in charge ?

Q: Hi 5I,
The above names are all owned in my TFSA. Of these, I am underweight in COV, IWO, PHO, SDX, SYZ AND VB. I've got some cash to put to work with a long term objective. With consideration to the sector weighting, and my under weights, would you recommend I top up on any at this time or maybe introduce a completely different name or names to the portfolio? Thanks!
