The objective of this Fund is to achieve long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in equity securities of Canadian companies. The Fund may invest in both large and small capitalization companies. Unitholder approval (by a majority of votes cast at a meeting of unitholders) is required prior to a fundamental change of investment objectives.
The Fund invests primarily in equity securities (including securities convertible into equity securities) of Canadian companies, but may invest up to 35% of the Fund's property in similar securities of companies located outside of Canada. The Portfolio Sub-Advisor's approach is based on a combination of fundamental bottom-up research and thoughtful macro-economic analysis of trends in major industry groups. Companies are evaluated on their market position, growth prospects and cost structures, a
