Q: Early in the winter I bought some Keyera, but only got about half of what I had bid for. The price started to climb, so I just let the remainder of the bid expire. The price is now back down near my initial purchase, and I am debating whether to purchase the other half (I hold a 1% position, this would make it 2%). Could you comment on:
1) current guidance from management
2) debt levels, and how this compares to others in the industry
3) dividend payout percentage
4) do you consider it a "buy", and if so, buy now or wait a bit

Thank-you, Grant

Q: Sold GSY yesterday. Likely would have stayed the course, but the company's failure to divulge information with regard to Canada Drive in a timely manner tipped me over the edge. So, I have 3% of my portfolio in cash that I would like to reinvest in a Canadian stock with a similar growth/dividend/risk profile. Minimum dividend of 2%, preferably >3%. Canadian stocks already held are: T, X, WSP, TFII, ATZ, SIS, BIPC, BEP, SU, NPI, NTR, PBH, BAM, BN. (US stocks are: GOOG, IHI, COST, NVDA, J, ABBV, MSFT, V, HD and AMZN.) I would appreciate 3 suggestions that would meet my criteria. No industrials or financials please, as I am already overweight. Thank you.

Q: hi, in regards AQN Kentucky power transaction- the end of March is the end of comment period, with presumably a decision on whether or not this transaction will go through shortly after? do you have any sense as to this purchase going ahead, or not going ahead ( and AQN paying a penalty ). further, what do you think the potential upside could be with an announcement of the merger NOT going forward; and conversely what do you think the downside in AQN price could be if the merger does go ahead? cheers, chris

Q: If a series of events were to occur that would cause the long end of the yield curve to spike to 10%, how does this affect highly indebted companies such as ENB, TRP and BEP.UN ? What measures can they take to avoid bankruptcy in that scenario, and what would be your level of confidence that they could ?

As a 2nd part to this question, what are your top 5 Canadian dividend-paying stocks that would have balance sheets that one would not necessarily need to be concerned about ? i.e. durability under the above situation.

Q: Good morning,

I currently hold FRU in my TFSA account and it is down approx 30%.

Q1. What is your outlook at this time of FRU and would this be a good entry point to purchase some additional shares?

I wish to purchase an energy stock for my TFSA and GXE is one under consideration given the relative safety of its high dividend and growth prospect should the price of oil go higher.

Q2. What are your thoughts and outlook of GXE at this time and do you have a better recommendation for a new position in my TFSA?

Thank you and I'll await your sage advice.

Q: I have held TRP for a long time recommended by all analysts who cover it. I do understand that pipelines are rarely to be added in the future and TRP is a huge owner operator in N.A. They also manage to increase dividend (now @7%) every year. It's payout is in excess of 500%. Can you explain how TRP is so overrated with such a poor payout ratio?
