Q: I hold these 3 stocks for income and have seen capital erosion in recent years with weakness in the telecom sector. In terms of industry concentration, how much overlap is there between the three (Telus has held up best), would you recommend letting one or two of them go, which one(s), and what would you recommend in the general sector as a replacement (US or Cdn)?

In particular, I am curious about BCE's prospects following the US acquisition after selling MLSE stake, dividend cut, debt, and scaling back of capex.

Q: Most of the telecom sector seems to be drowning in expenses and regulation. What is setting tmus apart and will this continue? Do you still see it as an attractive investment?

Q: Portfolio Analytics suggests a need to increase my allocation in utilities, real estate, communication services and consumer defensives. Could you give me your best 3 picks for each category, preferably on the TSX. If you feel the Canadian doesn't have very good choices, suggestions on the US market would be appreciated. Thanks.
