Q: [Re-sending]: In your reply to my question of Nov 24, 2020, you added at end “ Members know how we feel about it.” I am baffled. I have no idea what you meant, possibly because I do not read the Q & A. Please clarify, thanks.

Q: Hi
As I was driving to my "empty" office unit, I heard on CBC Radio One, that there is pressure from some groups for the Health care REITs especially Senior's homes REITs like Siena to withhold the dividends because after all they are getting money from the Govt at this time to stay afloat and why should the Govt money go to pay the investors?! (my words)
Are the dividends at risk? The whole sector can take a BIG hit, if the dividends are withheld, no?

Q: The way the three stocks have been rising lately, from their current stock prices, is it likely that the stock price of these three companies will go up by approximately 50% in the next 6 months or so, the reason for the question is I am looking at buying now and selling in 6 months time and make some quick profit. Dividend is not a consideration at all. Any other companies you can suggest for 50% increase in stock price in 6 months?

Q: Good day all.
I've read a note at Motley Fools that An IPO of TELUS International is planned for Q1 of 2021. Are you aware of this? If yes can you elaborate on how the current investors would be involved? Would we get shares of the new entity? If we got a special distribution would it be taxable as a special dividend? Do we have an idea on the split would work?

Thank you for leading us through these tough times.

Q: On the supply side, dry gas prices are low and drilling activity has been scaled way back (storage is full to the brim).

On the demand side, the potential for a cold winter on the coasts, increased adoption of EV, conversion of coal to gas, vaccine driven Covid economic recovery, etc.

It looks like there's potential for a pinch in the market on the price of gas. If that was the case (I'd like to hear your thoughts on that), what companies would see the most positive response in share price?
