86% weighting in 1 year GIC's looking good

We have been sceptical of the TSX for the last half of 2017 and the market is finally taking our view point. Trudeau is NOT business friendly and the capital markets reflect that. Capital goes where it is treated fairly and the federal government has done nothing but make life difficult for entrepreneurs, especially in the oil and gas sectors. Benign neglect and ideological obsessions. The marijuana and crypto markets have been a distraction to the fundamental problems of the Canadian business landscape. With the fixed income markets looking well offered, the benefits of ultra low interest rates are dissipating. Not the end of the world, just a more volatile and choppy capital markets.
