Q: Hello 5i, Could you give your opinion as to now that Capital Power is totally off of coal and is now considered a green company, would there be interest of a takeover of Capital Power and if so which companies could be considered to be interested in taking over Capital Power. I think Transalta would be a front runner.

Q: I have a question about South Bow- Are they a true pipeline company only? In the event the price of oil rose, would they benefit from that, or do they get paid the same shipping a $70 barrel vs a $100 barrel? If the same then I feel it is a volume game, they get more revenue for extra barrels they ship. And the yield and price likely remain stable if WTI rises dramatically. If so then this is a pure income play not capital gain added on top. Thanks

Q: I noticed recently Fairfax had declared ownership of a 15-20 % stake in Ensign.

Not sure what their intentions are if anything other than purchase of a passive and undervalued investment. What are your thots on this ownership stake by Fairfax and do you see any likelihood of them purchasing a bigger piece or all of this company?

There has not been a lot of M&A in the Cdn Oil Sector amongst the Mid Cap Producers and Drillers lately. Do you see 2025 bringing any increase in M&A in this group amongst Mid Cap Producers and Service CO’s?

Q: Recognizing that I never got past Economics 101 , I see the oil industry as having terrible supply and demand dynamics .We are oversupplied even with
OPEC + purposely restraining output and worldwide oil reserves continuing to grow. The oil energy sector continues to be pressured by the green energy politics and technology. With 2 significant wars going on and supply lines being restrained by Houthi activity , the price of oil has been less than spectacular. Canadian oil companies are cheap for a reason. Please provide another view on this sector. Thanks. Derek
