Q: RRSP question: Assume I am an Alberta resident with $0 income in 2017. How much can I withdraw from from my RRSP account while maintaining a 0% tax rate (disregard withholding tax)? 2017 Basic Alberta Personal Amount is $18,690 at 10% and Federal amount is $11,635 at 15%. And, can I make this withdrawal now (Feb. 17) for 2017 or does the March 1st RRSP cutoff date apply for withdrawals as well? Thanks.

Q: Got this name as one of your suggestions for US holdings.

Last week it took a big hit on earnings even though I thought the earnings looked good.

Can you give me your take, were there any material changes IYO, and do you have any concerns re the company going forward?

Thanks

Sheldon

Q: Peter, I am going to provide my daughters (18 & 19) with $5,000 to start their TFSA's. The amount is not large enough to have a portfolio and I have read your answers on this type of question. However, I am thinking of a EFT for the S&P 500 rather than the Canadian index which is too focused on Financials and Energy. As their expenses will be in Canadian $, I would like your recommendations for a hedged EFT. Should I add a small position in SHOP, etc?

Q: Good morning gentlemen,

Which of these two securities do you believe will provide the highest total return over the next few years? I am inquiring because I have some Extra cash and a 5%. Discount on A&W looks like an enticing buy .

Thx,
