I have eight pairs of Toronto Rock Lacrosse tickets to give away!
The games take place at the Air Canada Centre and the seats are very good. Just tell me which ones you would like. A decision regarding who gets tickets will be made two weeks before each game and I will mail them to the lucky winner; while preference will be given to customers and those who tell me they’ve got a kid who plays lacrosse, anybody can win. If you win and don’t want your name publicized, that’s fine.
The games are:

Coupons Redeemable for available tickets Expires 2018-4-14 |
The games are a lot of fun. One thing that has impressed me is that these guys’ technical skills are so good they can concentrate on strategy … there are a lot fewer loose balls than I remember from my days of box lacrosse at age 10!
The redeemable coupons can be exchanged for tickets for any game, but there are no guarantees regarding just what seats you will get. Still, if you would like to plan an outing for four, rather than just a pair, let me know and … you might get two ‘real’ tickets and the two coupons!
The play-off game? There’s no guarantee that there will be one, but you could always try your luck and ask for them.
To try your luck at receiving a pair of tickets, just eMail me or comment on this post.
Off subject…but….I was wondering what you thought was likely to happen or legally required to happen with older, bank issued rate resets that are not Basel III-compliant? Must the banks redeem them at maturity or do they have the option to extend them in their current non-compliant form upon maturity. I was thinking of TD.PF.C specifically
It is likely – but not legally required – that the banks will redeem NVCC non-compliant shares on or prior to the last date these shares can be included in regulatory Tier 1 Capital, 2022-1-31. This is because from the issuers’ point of view, the change in regulations will change the shares from being ‘cheap equity’ to ‘expensive debt’. See DeemedRetractible Review: September, 2016.
TD.PF.C is NVCC-compliant, according to its prospectus.
TD.PF.C is NVCC compliant (please see https://www.td.com/document/PDF/investor/Supplement%20Prospectus%20English.pdf page 2). There was a discussion in the past about this subject http://prefblog.com/?p=31983#comments I am not sure if James has reached other conclusions in the meantime and I have noticed that Malachite fund is loaded with non compliant preferred share like BMO.PR.Q, BNS.PR.Z. I have also a few of them that were bought instead of GIC rung (the yield was bigger than 5 year GIC’s). If they get redeemed I will be happy if they do not I would be even happier with a dividend much higher that I could get from a GIC.

Good catch, dodoi!

Well, I wouldn’t say “loaded”, but yes, the fund does have a few. They’re useful.
