Q: seem to have a lot of questions about the safety of dividends and will they be cut.
I thought I would add another one to the fire and ask you power corp. and power financial became one company now and the management said it would raise dividend 10% in second quarter. do you see this being in jeopardy now with the market tanking day after day. do you also see banks possibly not raising dividends anymore this year [Canadian] until things get better hopefully.

Q: I was wondering if it would be possible to get a list of the CDN O & G companies that would be at risk of cutting dividends. Most have high debt levels and if O & G stays low for a long time, they will have to conserve capital and pay back debt.
Q: With regard to Martin's question about the safety of accounts of over $100k your response was that amounts above this were not guaranteed. My understanding is that the $100k limit applied to bank accounts, which are guaranteed by the Canadian Deposit Insurance Corporation (CDIC). Investment/brokerage accounts, however, are protected by the CIPF (Canadian Investor Protection Fund) up to $1 million. Is that not correct?

BMO Europe High Dividend Covered Call Hedged to CAD ETF (ZWE $19.82)
Q: I hear that those who make covered call ETF(s) are having a problem with the level of volatility. Do you understand what that means and whether that could cause some less liquid ones to dissapear, perhaps under a condition in their prospectus? I suppose black swan events like this one can make complicated products even more complicated to manage. Thank you.
