Investment Objectives

The Fund is designed to achieve long-term capital appreciation and consistent income by investing in equity securities of all market capitalization issuers. The portfolio may consist of all types of equity and debt obligations of issuers in Canada and the United States that may or may not be listed for trading upon the facilities of stock exchanges or other organized and regulated trading facilities in Canada and the United States.

Investment Strategy

The Fund invests in a combination of securities including but not limited to government and corporate bonds, short term debt instruments, convertible securities (including convertible bonds and warrants), income trust units, and rights, as well as common and preferred shares. These securities are primarily Canadian, but may also, as market opportunities dictate, include U.S. securities as well.
