Any preference on buying on the TSX or NYSE? Surprisingly seems like volume is higher on the US listed stock than the Canadian and IBKR charges a lot more commissions on TSX purchases. I just went with $VET vs $VET.TO but willing to hear reasons to go Canadian.

I went with the US listed as well. Ever since Canada deprioritized pensions investing in Canada, their stock market has no buyers

Don't you think that interest eats a lot of the reported CF? They pay 1 billion CAD to get 110 million CAD of CF. How much will remain after paying interest on debt?

Benchmark rates in Canada are down to 3%, the existing fixed debt is at very reasonable rates. I would hope they would lock in something long term and low interest, but we will have to see how management handles capital structure.
