Q: Hi Peter and Team, if Lightstream, LTS, formerly Petrobakken, PBN, was to cut its dividend payout by 50% or more and/or if the DRIP was cancelled then would that materially affect the current stock price to move in a positive direction? Wouldn't this be in the best interest of all shareholders? Why not cut the dividend substantially for now, while oil prices are high, take a hit, which they already are in terms of share price anyway, and start paying down debt much faster while oil prices are co-operating? Seems as though this would only help the share price for the long term! Thanks!

Q: CWC
Hi Peter, the service rig companies are all doing well because of the amount of oil wells drilled. An oil well requires more workovers and servicing than natural gas wells. Also with crude oil prices high the producers need to have the flow rates on a well to be maximized. What do think of buying CWC at current price because the yield is over 8%?

Q: I bought STP quite some time ago (small position) when it was at 1.69. It fell to 0.30 but has recently moved up to 0.40. Would it be a good idea to buy some more now to recoup my loss or do you think it won’t go much higher?

Also what are your thoughts on buying SU, CPG and WCP?

Thanks!

Q: I was wondering about your opinion on PMG (Petrominerales). It is currently paying a 7.8% dividend. I have a small position in it now, and would likely average down a bit if you feel this stock is likely to return to the $10 range over the next year or so. Thanks!

Q: Enb and trp. What small/ mid cap companies would benefit from the west to east pipelines reversal proposals? Maybe small oil companies that would be near the pipeline. Would they be selling at Brent or west Texas crude prices?
Also how about a ocean tanker Company's that would transport LNG and oil to Asia from west coast ports?

Thanks

Mr.Hodson, is this action by Buffett a significant vote of confidence likely to be of benefit in the future to Suncor and, implicitly, similar oil sands companies such as Canadian Natural Resouces (CNQ) and Canadian Oil Sands Ltd.(COS) ? Thank you for your kind attention.
