Maybe some of you can recommend a course.
PS. I don't mean to insult all those who are already quite knowledgable on the subject.

Not a course, but I strongly recommend reading
The Four Pillars of Investing by William Bernstein. It can be a bit of a slog in places, but I really found it a great foundational read that put a lot of the pieces in place in my own understanding. The Calgary Public Library has at least one copy of it, so I'd recommend checking it out and giving it a read if you're really interested.
I also follow a number of blogs, although the ones I read tend to be more general personal finance, rather than specific investing information. And of course, as was mentioned, the resident CP gurus make for great reading too!
