PAST TOP PICK	20.660	Brooke Thackray	(Top Pick May 6/09, Up 1.8%) Defensive play. Not a bad place to be in until end of Oct.	2010-08-05

SELL	20.250	Terry Shaunessy	Cdn Govt Bond ETF. He would be cautious on government bond portfolios. You get a much higher yield on corporate's than you do on government’s. If you own, he would switch.	2010-05-11

TOP PICK	20.290	Brooke Thackray	All Government Bond ETF. These are midterm bonds, 8-10 years. Bonds tend to do well from May through to December.	2010-05-06

BUY	20.800	Som Seif	Longer duration bonds, more sensitive to rising interest rates. If you are looking at 1-3 years to invest, then lighten up this one and go CLF-T. If you are going 10 years and looking for income, XGB is fine.	2009-12-02

Comment	20.220	Som Seif	Government bonds. Duration of about 8-9 years. More interest-rate sensitivity.	2008-09-22

BUY	20.540	Norman Levine	For a smaller individual investor, owning bonds through the iShares is an excellent idea, because you get great diversification at a very low cost. Right now he would concentrate on the shorter bond fund. (XSB-T?)	2008-03-10
