Q: Hi Guys
I just use these 2 ETFS to cover the World it keeps it simple, I was told Canada only represents 3% of the World so that is the weighting i use, would you find that an acceptable weighting. Also. VXC has Japan at 8% and China at 4.5% would this be acceptable or would you add another ETF to compliment the 2 listed above, to get a higher exposure to China and other countries, and if so at what percentage weighting.
Thanks Gord

Q: I enrolled in Portfolio analytics and found that your system does not recognize several of my holdings:
ishares msci switzerland etf
ishares msci netherlands etf
ishares msci japan etf
MAWER INTERNATIONAL EQUITY FUND 102 NL
MD BOND FUND MDM010
MD DIVIDEND GROWTH FUND MDM400
How can I include these holdings in my portfolio Analytics and do you have any comments on them. My inclination is to get rid of the fee based mutual funds and find something cheaper and with a better record
Thanks

Q: I purchased these ETF's a little over a year ago as my first outside of North America holdings. Just wondering what your thoughts are about these. I do have a long time frame.
