Q: 1.For Canadian coverage would you choose xic, vcn or xiu?
2.Would it be worth putting half the total amount in one of the above(xic, vcn, or xiu)and the other half in vdy?
3.For the U,S. allocation should I choose vig or spy which both require payment in u.s. dollars which I don't have, or would it be adequate to simply choose vun.

Thanks in advance. I plan to hold these allotments for many years and I appreciate dividends but do not need them for my living expenses.

Q: Dear 5i,
If you were to invest 1 to 2% in a TFSA for a minimum 3 to 5Y hold in either LCFS or TWM which one would it be? Can you please comment on the debt levels of each? Can you please comment on how significant the carbon credits are for each? Would you expect tax selling for these two in the next couple of months and what do you think would be a very attractive entry price?

Q: Lots of discussion re: where to park cash; we're currently using CIBC 3% Flexible GICs that are cashable any time with payout after 30 days in case we really tank and want the funds to re-invest in the market. Is there a decent summary resource to find other cashable GICs ? I've looked on various sites (Ratehub etc) but haven't found a good one yet as most/all listings shown are always locked in. Thank you,

Q: Good morning.

I don’t know much about REITS and there are a lot of choices. Looking out 5-10 years, what do you feel are the best areas to focus on and what would be 2 or 3 Canadian REITS you like best and which one would you choose for a long term hold and why?

If there is a US REIT you like or even prefer, please include.

Also, If there is a primer you could suggest or a previous blog post please link.

Thanks, M
