BUY
Encana Corp
Everyone should be in some energy stocks and this one is as good as any. Well diversified geographically. Great management and great growth behind it. Has a lot of gas exposure and gas has not been as hot as oil, so less volatile here.
oil / gas
DON'T BUY
Ford Motor
They can put a lot of incentives on to try and move the product, but they don't really have the produt that consumers want. Went to SUV's but as the bloom comes off the SUV market, they only have one car (Mustang) that is in demand.
Automotive
BUY
The majority of their business is tied into offshore oil platforms. Have lost a couple of good cntracts and haven't replaced them. The stock is in a pause mode right now and this would be a good time to accumulate it. A long term investment in the oil sector.
Transportation
DON'T BUY
Nortel AS
Currently lacking a president/CEO. The last one left very quickly, so management is not a stable one. Financials seem to be getting more in order. Has great reservations about the company. A speculation and a gamble. Products are under siege right now.
Telecommunications
WAIT
An exceedingly well run company. Now a global player, probably #7 in the world. Moved into the Australian market where there is a glut of red grapes. This is driving down prices. A good long term stock to have. It'll either gorw by buying more wineries around the world or will sell to one of the bigger guys. Let it settle down.
breweries / beverages
HOLD
Falconbridge Ltd
Nickel prices are looking good and copper is continuing to do well.
integrated mines
BUY
ConocoPhillips
A good buy here. Cheap because it's not one of the majors.
integrated oils
DON'T BUY
In the penalty box. This bank has had the poorest management going back 20 years. Has sold at a discount and should continue to do that.
banks
BUY
Toronto Dominion
Also involved with the Enron fiasco, but not to the same extent as CIBC (CM-T). Not worried about them and likes this bank. Well run. Likes their exposure of moving slowly into the US.

TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jun 6/05. Up 15.5%.) Feels the oil service sector is underpriced compared to the price of energy. Also thinks that as the price continues to stay up here, more and more energy copmpanies who have been sitting on cash will be looking at this as a possible acquisition. Well run.
oil / gas field services
PAST TOP PICK
Transalta Corp
(A Top Pick Jun 6/05. Up 13.5%.) Also had a nice dividend. Dividend is rock solid. Would still buy the stock at these prices.
electrical / electronic
PAST TOP PICK
Newmont Mining (US)
(A Top Pick Jun 6/05. Up 10%.) The premier gold company in the world. Good management.
precious metals
HOLD
Superior Plus Corp
The new businesses that they acquired have not shown the same characteristics of growth that the propane did. Propane seems to be slowing down a bit. Earnings were less than what market was looking for so the stock sold off. Hold as an income, not a growth.
wholesale distributors
BUY
This and ManuLife (MFC-T) are the best finacials in the country. Get some good diversity in this company.
finance / leasing
BUY
Likes the outlook for metalurgical coal. Good pricing environment and demand.
