Q: Between these 2 stocks, both with good growth and dividends, would you prefer for a long term hold. Are their dividend taxed differently in Canada?

Is there another CDN or US stock you prefer to these two?

Q: Interesting article today in Wall street journal on Canadian oil sand producers.
i like this point: More recently, some companies have started replacing human-operated trucks with autonomous ones. Suncor Energy sees room for even more efficiency: On a call with analysts last month, the company said the WTI crude-oil price at which it can reach corporate break-even could come down by $10 a barrel, or about 19%, by year-end 2026.

Perhaps Buffet will buy in again (not sure if he sold his whole position).

Q: hi all:

looking at the total nuclear complex from producers to manufacturing to servicing to repairing.............the whole industry now and into the future

besides the producers (i own cco and nxe) who do you see as potential investable companies over the next 5+ years

(in services, i own bwxt)

more specifically, i'm hearing more that small modular reactors will show good potential for our energy grid, who do you foresee as playing a role in building and servicing?

......and anything else you care to add on this theme!

thank you

Q: Hello 5i, Could you comment as to why the operators of the Trans Mountain Pipeline would supply tanker loads of Canadian Oil to the US west coast refiners to replace Iraq oil. This oil is heavily discounted. I thought the purpose of the new pipeline was to obtain world price for Canadian oil and reduce the supply of discounted Canadian oil to the US. This new event is quite concerning for Canadian oil producers to achieve world price for there oil.

Q: Dear 5i team.

I see TOU has announced the regular divident payable 6/28. I understnad they intend to pay "special" dividends based on results as the FY carries on.(and as they have done in the recent past) What is the timing for these, and when/how do they declare them?

Many thanks for your help.

Q: Hi, Oil is steadily trading above $80 and NG is up 75%, from its bottom recently. Summer driving season seems to have already started strong. Both CNQ and SU are still trading, close to their recent lows. Why have Oil/Gas equities failed to respond ?
Any thoughts or concerns ?

Thanks

Q: My son has held VFV and XIC in his RRSP account for a few years now. That was based on your recommendation around starting an ETF portfolio for him at that time.
He will have extra cash to contribute this year, and I'm wondering if he should maybe add some other ETF's at this point, or just continue to stick with these 2.
If he should add, what other ETF's would you recommend?
Also, for the 2 he already has, do you still think VFV and XIC are the best choices, or are there other ETF's you like better right now?
Thank you!

Q: If Trump wins the election in November, he has threatened to write executive orders against development of wind power as well as reduce incentives for all clean energy, wile promoting fossil fuels. You have often liked BEPC for a safe long-term investment (and I own a full position in it). How much will a Trump victory hurt the future growth of BEPC?
