Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
I realize oil and gas are high risk for numerous reasons. However I am wondering if this trust company may be suitable as a contrarian play. Are they stable in the long run. There dividend is almost 30%...which seems impossible? Even if they cut it in half it would be great. Would it be at least a hold for current owners of the stock? Your assessment and comments would be appreciated. Thank you!

Q: Do you have any insight on the topic of the real estate holdings of this company? I know they sold an impressive tract of oceanfront property in Greater Vancouver in recent years, and a gas station site next to a Skytrain hub is being converted to a high density apartment project.
I'm unsure if accounting rules still show that real estate is to be carried on the books of a company at the original cost. I'm also wondering what percentage of gas station sites and other land holdings are company-owned or leased by Imperial Oil. Thank you for anything you can offer toward gaining an understanding of these real estate values.

Q: Following the presidential debate it sounds like Biden has a fairly aggressive stance towards a switch to clean energy. Also, he seems intent on renewing spending on infrastructure. I already hold Algonquin and ICLN in the so called clean energy sector. Any others i should look at there? And what might profit from infrastructure spending, should Biden win.
Thanks

Q: I have both in my RRIF. BIR has moved very well last 2 weeks and I am making small amount of money. Still down with TOU . Should I keep both for time being, have held them for quite a while. I could put the money in another stock, or top up TOU for dividend.With topaz starting maybe TOU would increase DIV sometime in future. Tks for helping in past

Q: I realize this topic has been discussed before but I still cannot understand the continued widening spread between these two securities. The spread between BEPC and BEP.UN has now widened to almost $20. Seems way overdone. If I wanted to add in a registered plan which would you recommend and why. Do you believe BEP.UN would eventually increase relative to BEPC.
Thanks for your service.

Q: I intend crystallizing a loss on CNQ and was trying to decide on buying a company in roughly the same business so that I stay in the market segment. SU might be the obvious choice but have some already. Can you suggest some alternatives from the those noted or others, preferably with a divided.
Btw I find the dividend updates very useful.
Thanks
