Sold GIB.A for a small profit yesterday and flipped the
money into PWI.UN. Paid 27.05, then watched the stock
drop to 26.91 but felt better when I got back from the
beach. It was 27.15. It's paying over 17%. 40 cent a
month distribution. Seems reasonable.

Was helping a friend try to find GICs or short term bonds
for her mother's account that is held in trust. Nada.
Best I could do was just over 3%. Unfortunately, the
terms of the trust don't allow anything else to be bought.
I wanted to weep. Even pipelines or GLH or....would provide
the money needed to keep the old lady in a decent old
folk's home but not 3%. 17% and she'd have everything she
needed. Must be a lot of people in the same bind. Lot of
old people whose savings are rapidly being depleted.
