Vanguard FTSE Canada All Cap Index ETF (VCN.TO) seeks to track, to the extent reasonably possible and before fees and expenses, the performance of a broad Canadian equity index that measures the investment return of large-, mid- and small-capitalization, publicly traded securities in the Canadian market. Currently, this Vanguard ETF seeks to track the FTSE Canada All Cap Domestic Index (or any successor thereto). It invests primarily in large-, mid- and small-capitalization Canadian stocks.
An Exchange Traded Fund (ETF) is a collection of hundreds or thousands of stocks or bonds in a single fund that trades on major stock exchanges. ETFs combine the diversification of mutual funds with lower investment minimum and real-time pricing. The beauty of ETFs is that they are extremely similar to mutual funds; the difference is you purchase these investments on your own with lower fees!

Shiella A2022-06-30Nic is professional, intuitive, personable and passionate about his role. We are so gald to have Nic as our financial advisor; our portfolios are well managed and we have been happy with the outcomes over the years. Nic always goes out of his way to help us. We had a bad experience with our Canada life mortgage broker, his lack of support and responsiveness almost cost our family a great opportunity so we had to move on. We honestly wish Nic was able to handle our mortgage needs as well. This will ensure that all our service needs will be well managed. Thank you Nic for everything you do!

John Vella2021-06-10This was my first experience with a financial planner. Nic took the time to explain everything to me. He is very patient and thorough. We talked about my goals and plans for retirement. We also talked about my comfort level when it comes to the the ups and downs of investing. I felt very comfortable with Nic. He is down to earth and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend Nic to anyone needing a financial planner. I feel much more comfortable with my investment plan because of Nic and look forward to working with him for all my investment needs.
