Q: Hi from Burnaby--I have considered the possibility of Canada exporting oil thru BC or Eastern ports or via US Gulf ports--what would be the impact on income to our big and smaller oil/gas producers. What impact would this have on government revenues, and how soon could it be before exports started? (obviously rail will be the first way to get to the BC coast as the legal cases drag on). When do I time my purchases of oil companies. Bill

Q: Hello Peter
I am looking for a long term heavy oil/oilsands buy for the dividend because they have immense reserves and will operate indefinitely. Canadian Oil Sands COS is a plodding behemoth with little price change for 3 years but the best combination of high dividend 6.98% and Lowest P/E 11.26. I know you said on Nov 28th that it very cheap but a slow grower. The only other high dividend stock that I can find is Baytex BTE div 6.31%, but P/E 31.18. Is the higher Baytex P/E justified and on what basis, and might it be a better buy and is BTE's dividend secure longer term, and which one would you choose?
Thank you. Paul
