Q: Hi
I've got a 3% position in CAE currently in my RRSP. It's done well for me over time, but I'm thinking about selling it. If I do, I'm considering TFII as a replacement, if I stay in the industrial sector. However, I'm also considering GSY as an alternative. I'd like more momentum and a bit of a dividend, and without too much risk. What is your opinion on selling CAE and replacing it with either TFII or GSY? Which of TFII or GSY would you prefer at this time?
If you have another suggestion I'd appreciate hearing it. Thanks!

Q: Hi. I have decided to add an equal position of each of the above to my portfolio. These companies will even out my exposure among sectors. I have room in both my tax free account and my rrsp account. (RRSP won't be accessed for 18 - 20 years) I guess what I'm asking is would it be more advantageous to put any of the above in a tax free account vs an rrsp account?

Q: I have a hypothetical question regarding the $7,50 distribution that will take place later this year. Assume that I bought the shares at $10 and that the distribution was a return of capital. The ROC would reduce my cost base by $7,50 to $2.50. So if the market price of the shares dropped by $7.50 to $2.50 and I sold the shares at that price I would not have any gain or loss on the sale. Apparently, if my logic is correct, I would be pocketing the $7.50 with no tax consequences. Am I missing something? Or is this the logic that would preclude this distribution from being considered a return of capital?

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,

Ignoring tax consequences, how would you rank CMMC, CS, FCX, and NTR to boost our Basic Materials exposure? The only exposure we have is XMA, which is heavier into gold, but going forward, we're interested in copper and fertilizers.

Thanks in advance for your assistance.
