Q: I have a held 4.7% position in Enbridge for 5yrs+, the average dividend yield over the period is 5.52% it will generate 5k in income for us this year. I would like to continue to hold all things being equal and the dividend not under serious risk. It would seem to me to keep the company strong they have to make a bigger push into renewable energy if this low carbon world is the future. Can you comment if you see Enbridge taking part this transition on the scale that's necessary and still keep the dividend reasonably secure.

Q: Now that the financing of the proposed buyout of CRH is confirmed I was expecting that WELL's stock would stabilize. Could it be that the threat of class actions on behalf of current CRH holders may have to do with the continuous fall of WELL ? Is there anything else but just profit taking on WELL after their spectacular run in 2020?
Thank you for your insight.

Q: Going through all your portfolios looking for a high(er) growth stock with a dividend >1 that I don't already own. Can you please rate the following on a scale of 1-10 (1 being low) for both growth and risk over the next 12-18 months: MG, SLF, PKI, TFI, CCL, PLC, GSY, OTEX. (I note that all but SLF are currently rated 'strong buy'.) And if you have two clear favourites in the preceding list, I would appreciate those being noted separately. Thank you.

Q: Like 5i, I have held Enbridge for quite sometime. Looking back to 2014, Enbridge has gone nowhere and depending on the purchased price, e.g. 5i's case, in the negative. As explained to Paul a week ago Dividend is great, still very safe, etc. Now with the latest weak quarter, all the political, environmental hoopla; could you explain the benefits, even in an income portfolio of why Enbridge should be retained.
Thank You, Stephen S
