Q: Hello 5i,on the most recent offer by Yamana and Agnico for Osisko could you comment as to your opinion as to if this is the last offer would you hold onto Osisko and take the shares of Yamana and Agnico or sell into the market? Also say on the basis of if you hold 1000 shares as of now of Osisko what would be the break down as to how many shares and or cash would you receive of Yamana and Agnico and when would this deal be completed.
Thanks Michael

Q: VXS

Haven't seen the results of yesterdays report but I can't imagine it was good considering the markets reaction today with an 11% slide.

Q: Hello Peter,
I am looking to make a move ( 5-7% weighting )on either SLF or GWO, maybe both. Ford recommends GWO as a Strong Buy. Could I have your opinion on which one you would pick? I would consider either one or both, to be ``cornerstone holdings``. In other words, long term growth with steady div. income, within a moderate to medium risk, but well diversified, portfolio. Thank you sir!

Q: What is your outlook for the REIT sector?
It does not appear that interest rates are going anywhere,
they pay a healthy dividend & low beta.
Do you have a favorite.

As always - thank you

Q: Peter and Team,

Is it time to cut and run on Kirkland Lake Gold? It feels wrong to sell such a high grade asset so low but it seems like it can't do anything right these days. Maybe I should be selling this and rolling it into my existing B2 Gold position (also own Goldcord and some bullion) or maybe I should be moving it to another "physical" name totally out of the gold space like Stella Jones?

I can't help but feel like the day I sell KGI will be the day that I miss out on some big guy coming in and buying this at a premium but still cheap!

Q: I notice that last year, FSV's (First Service Corp) Q1 was the weakest quarter of the year. It looks to be the same for 2014, with a current projection for Q1 2014 of 13 cents a share but increasing substantially thereafter. What is the reason for this and what are your expectations for the Q1 earnings that will be reported later this month?

Q: Helathlease Properties HLP.UN has released a new offering of $50mil in new units @ $10. I currently do not have any REITs and the 8.5% dividend at this price looks quite attractive. Would this be a good time to buy HLP or do you see any hidden concerns with HLP in specific or the Health/REIT Sector in general to avoid this area at this time. Thank you.

Q: I have decent gains in Emera (EMA) after buying in the fall. The dividend yield is now getting towards my lower range for a non-growth type company. Would it make any sense to swap EMA for Brookfield Renewable (BEP.UN). This would give me a 1%+ bump in yield but stay within the industry. Which company has the better blend of growth/dividend increase potential going forward? Is the relatively high P/E ratio at Brookfield a concern?

Thank-you
