Q: These stocks are held in my wife's RRIF - just turned 71 - start withdrawing 2026. QSR, NTR ,GSY & GRT.UN small positions. GSY added this year. Thinking of selling GRT.UN - stock has not done much & very small dividend increaser, QSR (500 shs) small position - not big dividend grower - thinking of selling, NTR held fora while - up a fair bit 44%, 500 shs - sell? Comments if you agree with my analysis and if so, what should buy or add to this account?

Q: For a leveraged account could you suggest 1 or 2 additional Canadian dividend stocks to add.
With the ROC distribution on VEQT is it best to re invest in more shares of the ETF with the funds or does it need to be transferred back against the loan to keep it fully tax deductible.
Thank you!

Q: Hi. I have tried a couple times to submit this question now...
My kids have a family RESP. Oldest child will be starting post-secondary in 9 years.
Currently have GLXY, BN, SIS and T.
What will be good holdings to add to this? If sector diversification is not taken into consideration, what will be good to add?
Thank you.

Q: A retired friend of mine recently asked for my recommendations on how to invest approximately 200K which, with minimal risk, which will give him a reasonable (4.5% to 5.0%) annual dividend with minimal expectations of big capital growth, Since he currently has very little experience with investments, I would like to build a portfolio that will require minimal ongoing involvement on his part. I believe that a 10-15 year timeframe is realistic.
My thought is to split the 200K into 10 equal parts and purchase the following Canadian equities.
BNS
TD
GSY
CNQ
TOU
ENB
FTS
T
CCA
BEPC
I realize that a portfolio like this is overweight on energy. I'm comfortable with that.
What are your thoughts on this strategy and do you see any of the companies listed that you would avoid? Are there any others that you think should be added to the list?
