    Way too much, and decreasing regularly.

    About 25% of my overall portfolio is Canadian equities/mutual funds. Only keeping them as my safe stash as it's mostly banks, REITS and dividend stocks"

    I told my RBC Financial advisor about 2 years ago to change my mutual funds off Canadian equities and invest globally instead.
    Last year I had a quick review of the funds with her and she was like "your portfolio is doing well, I see you switched to global which I think it's something I would have suggested", I just rolled my eyes.

    I own 1 SES and 1 VGRO. I think both of those are Canadian.

    Maybe I ought to diversify because together they're worth $32.

    25% up from 10% a year ago. I bought a few of the Canadian banks in April after the large intitial drop. I plan to bring that down to 10% again before the end of Q2. Some banks have given better returns than others.

    $32 is definitely too much Canadian exposure

    Right now 35% International / 35 US / 28 Can / 2 cash in my investment accounts.

    I'm debating removing 25% of the balance to cash if we see another big increase in the market but am scared to miss the upside with all the money being printed.

    A big portion of that will likely come from Canada.

    Bought 650 shares of MEG today, felt right and I can't imagine there is much lower / more despair than where we are currently at. In @ 5.23, hopefully this doesn't age like milk.

    Another $7,199,968 and I'm retired.

    I tried to calculate how many percent I need my portfolio to gain to hit $7.2M, but the answer had an e in it. I don't remember that kind of math. I assume the e is short for easy street. I'm taking that to be a good sign.

    Shit, voted zero... then remembered I have a work rrsp account that’s in some sort of BS funds... probably Canadian, but I forgot my login, so who knows?

    CNQ is the only Canadian oil producer I'd buy personally. I own a little through an ETF.

    For my work DC pension, i allocate 25% to "BLK S&P/TSX Composite Index Seg Fund", 55% US equities, 20% global equities.

    For my other accounts i'm not sure...really depends on how VGRO is allocated internally.

    BB is the only Canadian company I hold, and mainly for the WSB memes.

    (I do think BB has some great growth potential on their own merits as well. QNX is great.)

    Zero for me unless you count VGRO.

    I never buy any Canadian O&G (directly) because I feel like owning real estate in Calgary as well as some bundled in my ETFs already has me plenty exposed to O&G.

    Acurrate comment. My paycheque is O&G so I'm overweight in that sector without any more investment

    27% for me at the end of Dec. Then 41% US, 28% international and 4% cash.

    Turned out to be too much this year...
