Q: Very disappointed in yet another 5i pick in the income portfolio down substantially until a final sell recommendation is released.
You state: "With declining equity markets, lower assets under management and increasing competitiveness in the Canadian financial industry, we have decided to sell Gluskin Sheff"
My question is, why did you recommend it in the first place? All the items applied when you decided to add it to the income portfolio. Seems another stock where you were simply chasing yield without dying proper DD.

Q: RRSP: SPY, XAW.TO, VXUS
RESP: CDZ.TO, VGG.TO
TFSA: VAB.TO, VXC.TO

Sorry I didn’t quite understand your response to my earlier question. XAW.TO is in my RRSP, which you said was the appropriate place to house ETFs with US dividends to avoid withholding taxes. Why then would removing this from my RRSP result in “tax efficiency”?
