Q: Hi There
FFH.PR.E has fallen off a cliff since June - I wonder where the bottom may be. Other than Fairfax's interest in Blackberry, is there something I am missing? I have a modest amount and I am thinking of buying some more. Is Fairfax still sound?
Many thanks.

Q: You last commented on LIF (Labrador Iron Ore) on July 9th. Is this company worth holding for its dividend, plus continuing special dividends, and high takeover probability? As always, I look forward to your informed opinion and thank you in advance.

Q: Great webcast today Peter! Quick question: I have had Manulife MFC since before they cut their dividend 50%, and the stock price tanked. It has come back some, but I'm wondering if I should continue to hold, or take my year end tax loss, and buy Sunlife instead. I also hold GWL.

Q: Currently own UXM for exposure to US plus a nice 3.5% dividend. Currently hold in a non-reg acct and in January I will be selling and switching it in to an RSP for tax reasons. If I rebuy UXM in the RSP do I have to adhere to the 30 day waiting period? Is there a similar or better CDN $ ETF you can recommend that will give me exposure to the US with a similar yield.
