Q: What do you think about taking a 5% position in Bird at this time. Although its share price is down, it has consistently paid an attractive dividend since 2011 (0.66/year), rising to 0.76/year in 2014 where it has remained. Its second quarter results were disappointing due to Alberta wildfires, but isn't this a good entry point as Fort McMurray reconstruction ramps up?
