Q: I hold the above in a taxable account focused on dividend income. I also hold FTS separately. Increasingly I believe that there will be increased demand for renewable power to drive AI, electric charging cars etc... Do you have any recommendations that are dividend payers that would play into this theme of increased power demand?
Would you add to or remove any of the above based upon company fundamentals?

Thanks

Q: SUncor has suggested that once they reach 12B in debt that they will return 75% of free cash flow to shareholders. As a shareholder I like that. My question is why wouldnt paying down debt be a better marker for shareholders? While I recognize that the Company can write off interest expense against their income, it seems incongruous.

Q: I hold small, equal positions in both AMT and CCI. I'm down on both and I'm thinking of doing some cleanup. Of the two, is there one you prefer at this time? I'm thinking of selling one and moving the funds over to the other,,,

Q: As an older investor, I am considering a gradual move from mostly individual stocks to a fully ETF portfolio. My thinking is to allow management simplicity for my wife in the event of my death or disability. Seeking dividends predominately but also a representation of growth. Can you please suggest an array (portfolio) of ETFs that I could begin migrating towards? As always, your advice is appreciated. thank you

Q: I have these ETF's in my portfolio, although they are a small percentage. I am wanting to do a clean up of most of my partial holdings in individual stocks and purchase more ETF's. I was going to add VIG as well. Could any of these ETF's be replaced with better ones or not bother with them, and what others do you suggest to compliment them for an income investor who wants to see a little growth as well in a well diverse portfolio? Thanks.

Q: Seeing as BCE is down, would it make sense to reduce BCE and enter into RCI.A and QBR.A. ? They seem more cyclical and are down as well. Or ride out BCE?

Q: I bought BEPC (not BEP.UN - I have concern about the potential tax/withholding issues in the US) about 2 weeks ago, and am up about 26% in short order. Bought it because it appeared under valued and had an almost 6% dividend. Due to the recent gains, the dividend is now down closer to 5%, which can be had with some other utility or even some bank stocks. What do you think - take the gain and go home (this is in an RRSP, so no tax implications), or do you see further gains, no doubt more modest. I do have a small position in BNS, and would consider moving the proceeds to it. How would you compare the potential for gains between these two, the safety of dividend, and general safety of principal.
Thank-you
