RE:RE:Excuse my ignorance
RE:RE:Excuse my ignoranceMost if not all of those dividends collected are allocated towards the canoe prefferd shares, and not towards the canoe unit shares. Since canoe is actively managed and are constantly buying and selling shares within the portfolio, constantly taking advantage of selling overpriced or buying underpriced stocks the profits made are allocated towards the canoe units. And that is why our dividends collected at the end of the year are taxed in the form of capital gains, while the preferred shares dividends are taxed as dividend income. Hope that helps.
