Q: There’s a great deal of commentary lately on the economic impact of energy supply disruptions (China moving energy supply from manufacturing to housing being one example). The continued pressure from the environmental lobby along with probable COP26 commitments might further interfere with the usual flow of commerce. Given the Canadian government’s disdain for the golden goose that is gas and oil, I find I don’t have confidence Western governments will make wise economic decisions. The current situations of the UK and EU are further evidence of very poor energy and economic planning. I realize there’s always something to worry about so is this more noise or do you think the investing horizon may be changing in a material way as governments cede the economic landscape to environmental policy. As the holder of primarily growth stocks with a long view I’m wondering if it’s time to reevaluate my portfolio given the winds of change. Your thoughts please.

Q: your opinion about MCR please.
Why is this company lagging the oil sector?you would think it would move with oil price going up.
Is there a chance it would be a take-over candidate?
are there other companies that you prefer ,like Questor or XBC?

Q: Currently my only energy exposure is by way of pipelines; ENB and PPL. Given the prospects for good energy demand and increasing dividends in the sector I would like your recommendation for a company with good dividends and relative strength to withstand the ups and downs in the sector.
This would be a long term position in my dividend focused non-registered portfolio.
I have targeted the above 3 companies as prospects but would be open to others you may recommend. Any preference for Oil vs Gas focus?

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
I have held this company for years and of course am down a ton. It is in my RIF account so a tax loss is not possible. So with energy rising do you think this stock may rise in the near future. It would be great to regain some of my losses. On the other hand maybe this is as good as it gets and might as well move on! Thanks your opinion is always helpful!
