Q: Hello, my question is about the BAM.A spinoff, I find it confusing. I currently hold 100 shares of BAM.A, so according to what I have read should I understand that few days after the spinoff my account will show 100 shares of "BAM" to replace the current BAM.A symbol and 25 shares of the new company under the "BN" symbol? Thank you,

Q: In reading your previous answers, you indicate that BAM has 100B in capital to deploy. I don't see that figure anywhere. Can you confirm that number and if it includes unused credit and just mention where you see it? Thank-you

Q: In your reponse to Cecil today you state: "VOO will be more tax efficient as it is US-listed whereas VFV is Canadian-listed. Foreign withholding tax on dividends will be exempt." I was under the understanding that there is no foreign withholding tax on dividends in an RRSP.
