If you "cherry pick" the over 3% dividend yielders from the list you can have a high growth, high yield portfolio. Double whammy in this economy.

The hard assets! But check out the oddball clothing, IT, and consumer discretionaries in there, too. There's more like that in the Composite Index, too. Yep, Canada’s economy is all about resources.

Nice. I remember hearing so many stories about Canadian pump and dump mining (diamonds??) companies, it was quite interesting. Perhaps like the internet days of the US in 1999-2000!
