Q: Have made my tfsa contribution for 2026 and trimmed some winners and added some themed growth ideas.
It's now a decision to add MDA or CGY. Both are performing well which would you choose or split the position between them both at this time.
Thanks
David

Q: Can you suggest some stock and ETF's traded on both US and CDN exchanges that employ many blue collar workers that may not be effected by AI implementation. My thinking is that one always needs humans to do "actual" labour like building homes, plumbing & electrical maintenance etc. Does this make sense?

Q: Mark Carney made quite the splash with his recent speech. He seemed to be saying the old economic system is broken and will not return. (we can no longer depend on the world's super powers to play by the old rules.) If he is right (I think he is) what 3 Canadian companies could benefit the most from this new reality? Also, this new paradigm being global, what three global ETFs could benefit the most? Thanks as always for your guidance.
