Q: I believe you have recently switched from Telus to BCE as favourite telco, however does the asset investment in TV concern you? With the numbers of people fleeing cablevision in favour of streaming will BCE be caught in a double whammy, losing on owning TV stations and on cablevision subscribers? Will this not impact revenue streams and potentially the dividend?

Q: QSR has not panned out for me. How do you like McDonald's or other quick serve restaurants? EAFT.NE - my daughter purchased on Apr. 7 of this year. The cease trade by the Securities Commission - are we protected for the money we have lost with this holding? When I search a specific stock it gives me a great amount of information. There is a deviation line with dots on it. Is it better when the dots are going higher or lower as I do not know much about this. Looking forward to hearing from you. Thank you again,
