Q: EQB's earnings were surprisingly bad. I expected maybe not great after seeing NA report, but its worse than that. Deposit growth is way below the projections they gave a few years ago, which never came to fruition. Customer growth is lagging and the loan book continues to deteriorate. They seem to be trying to smooth the impact with a big 17% div raise. But this is starting to be consecutive quarters or bad news. Thoughts?

Q: I currently hold stock in MEG, which I purchased for $30/share, so I've been in the red for a little while now.
With the recent announcement of the Cenovous takeover, would it be better for me to sell the shares now and take a loss, or take the shares offered in Cenovous?

I have seen VXUS recommended a lot, so I am considering that. Just want to have 2 more choices so I can compare before buying one of them.

iShares Core MSCI EAFE IMI Index ETF (XEF.U $32.31)
Q: Good morning.
I have a sizeable amount of US dollars in my TFSA and RRIF accounts and intend to add international investments with that money. I can either just purchase the XEF.u with the US money or go thru the Norbert Gambit process to convert to canadian dollars and then buy the XEF ETF. My question is which would you recommend and also buying XEF.u in my TFSA which I believe is a Canadian listed ETF would there be a 15% US withholding tax on the dividends.
Many thanks.
