Q: My 31-year-old daughter would like to build a portfolio of income-paying investments within her RRSP, LIRA, and TFSA accounts, with the intention of reinvesting dividends through a DRIP over the years. Which six Canadian dividend-paying stocks would you recommend for this goal or would it be more effective to use dividend-focused ETFs instead? The primary objective is to build a portfolio that generates reliable income. Thank you.

5i Research Answer:

We would suggest a combination of one or two ETFs, for diversification, and a mix of high quality stocks. For dividend growth, CDZ and VGG for Canada/US, respectively. These could be combined with these stock suggestions. FTS, ENB, SLF, BAM, H for a dividend group with a fairly conservative tilt. Note ENB has suspended their DRIP program. PPL could be substituted if DRIP is mandatory here. 

Authors of this answer, directors, partners and/or officers of 5i Research and/or affiliated companies have a financial or other interest in VGG.
