Q: Hi there,

I currently own PXT and was thinking of switching to QST. What would your thoughts be on this switch. I was thinking QST could be a "better" play on the oil industry and one that is less exposed to the price of the resource and with better upside overall. Thoughts?

Thanks!

Q: I am retired and rely on my dividends to supplement my pension. I own full positions in TRP, PPL and ENB. I am starting to get worried about ENB with all the talk of lawsuits, Line 5 and Michigan. I am considering selling ENB and either adding to my PPL and TRP positions or buying IPL to replace ENB. Your thoughts ?

Q: Good afternoon - Our collective family portfolio ( wife and I, retired) is roughly 40% fixed income comprised solely of GICs and Pref Shares. Our pref shares are with solid companies but given the lack of appetite for PShares the total value has been slowly deteriorating. This is something you have commented on in recent months and I’m wondering if and when we should bail and if we do, where then do we invest the proceed? Thanks

Q: CVE and MEG are considerably under-performing the energy sector this week, I'm guessing partially due to investors are doing some profit-taking since the TMX just got announced as the market has been hoping for. I have some decent unrealized gain in CVE and MEG, and noticed WCP was down a lot this Monday on unusual high volume, do you think it's a good idea to swap my energy holding from either MEG or CVE into WCP?

Q: We are seeking income (although capital retention is also important) and wonder if we would be wise to sell IPL which you don't seem big on and replace it with BPY.UN which you seem to like. The sector is not too important as the portfolio has a good balance of pipelines and REIT's. Both companies mentioned have a very good yield.

Q: I have had this stock for quite some time and people were concerned when it was $45 last year. Now that it is $26 and there have been recent calls to BNN by investors concerned about it. Some of the guests of BNN answering questions have recently sold it. What is your recommendation? Also, WSP Global, I have had for a couple of years with a small dividend has been flat. I could probably get a GIC which pays the same amount of money as WSP's dividend. Your thoughts? Thanks again, Dennis
