Q: Hello, Two months ago, I wrote to inquire about why the online stock return calculator on Stock Channel Canada was no longer working and hoped you could refer me to a new one that I might not know about. Now, after a few months, I have found that the site is back up and running. I just wanted to let you know. Thank you for your years of wonderful work.

Thank you.
