Q: In response to Paul's request for info on Scotia iTrade, I can't compare it to other on-line brokerages but I am mostly satisfied. I have used it for about five years and have never experienced a outage or slow-down. And that is, to my mind, the most important service they can offer.

They sometimes have a problem answering questions - a few weeks ago I asked if they could supply upcoming earning dates, etc. on equity information - never received a reply and that's just one example. Gee, I hope somebody from iTrade is reading this.

Q: I know that the new 10 year contract for KBro is very beneficial for them but does the fact they have to build a new facility to serve it mean earnings will be depressed next year? Thanks, J.

Q: First, I often wondered what would happen to Alaris (AD) should one of their investment goes south - now I know. And it is the reason why I have stayed clear - the risk is higher than it appears.

I'm at loss to understand what the "due bill" announcement from WFT means. And I am wondering about your take on the company.

Q: Do you know of a good free portfolio tracker? I'd like to be able to track historical performance and have it properly handle stock splits and dividends. I've been using google finance but it doesn't seem to deal with dividends properly and also messed up the stock split on CNR.

Thanks,
Rob

Q: Seasons Greetings 5i I was reading the news release from Husky Energy HSE from Dec.11 under Corporate Developments it read " The board of directors has decided to discontinue the payments of dividends by way of the issuance of common shares " What exactly does that mean. I contacted the investor relations but they haven't responded yet, I had contacted them some time ago about the dividend policy and they said the dividend won't be looked at until 2016 after some of the major projects are finished. Thx Gerry

Q: Hello Peter and the 5I team
I was wondering about buying a high yield oil stock I was considering BNE. My short list is CPG, BTE, BNE, COS, WCP.....I already own some WCP, would you just add to that position ( it is approximately a 3.5% holding now. My oil holdings are about 10% of total in my portfolio)? How do you think BNE stacks up against the other ones? What are your thoughts on BNE? If you don't like BNE what stock would you like?

Thanks
