Q: I sold my individual dividend stocks and am replacing them with an ETF for simplicity. How would you rate/compare these dividendETFS? Which two do you prefer? I'll put 1 in my rrsp and a another in my TFSA. I am diversified in other countries already. I'm thinking XDIV and XEI might be the safest?

Q: Have a question I have been meaning to ask for some time,

Do TSX/TSXV listed non-Canadian companies, like QIPT/US, KSI/Ireland, and IMP/US, just as examples, move more in-line with Canadian markets or their home country peers? E.g. if US healthcare companies are up 1% and Canadian healthcare companies are -1%, would you expect QIPT to be up or down 1%? QIPT is just an example, is there any information around this out there? *I am not asking about those specific companies in general.

I think ultimately I am looking at some of these American listed companies on the TSX (have a list from the TMX website: https://www.tsx.com/en/listings/listing-with-us/sector-and-product-profiles/united-states#listed-companies), and wondering if there are advantages to buying them to get American exposure, companies that report in USD, but avoid the FX fees and broker fees associated with buying American companies directly.

Any information you can provide would be great!

Also, some of the companies on that report from the TMX site I see are headquartered in Canada - like GRID, PIF, DR- any idea why they are on this report? They all say they're headquartered in Canada....

Thanks. - Jeff

Q: What is your opinion of Clean Harbors after the recent earnings report? Would you think it a worthwhile addition to WCN in the waste management space or better to go with a different company? Thanks.
