Investment Objective
The fundamental investment
objective is to generate long-
term capital growth while also
providing the opportunity to
earn some interest and
dividend income. The
Portfolio invests primarily in
securities of other mutual
funds, with an emphasis on
mutual funds which focus on
equities for greater potential
capital growth. The Portfolio
may also invest directly in
guaranteed investment
certificates, bonds issued by
the Canadian or provincial
governments and Strip Bonds.
The fundamental investment
objective may only be changed
with the approval of a
majority of unitholders at a
meeting called for that
purpose.

Portfolio Update
Quarterly Update
Canadian equities rose over the quarter amid positive economic news from China and improvements in U.S. housing and employment data. However, gains were moderated somewhat as political wrangling over solutions to the fiscal cliff distracted investors. The S&P/TSX Composite Index rose 1.7 percent over the quarter. Eight of the Index’s sectors rose, led by consumer staples, information technology and industrials. Overall, Canadian bonds generated modestly positive returns for the quarter. Both government and corporate bonds gained, with corporates outperforming their government counterparts. Corporate bonds continued to benefit from higher relative yields and strong company balance sheets.
