Q: Retired dividend-income investor. With the dust trying to settle on the USA election, where do you see the Canadian Energy sector sitting over the next year or two? I understand Renewables are taking off (I own AQN, FTS), but Renewables are very expensive right now and it is going to be a long way off before the oil industry is going to be extinct. My own feeling is we have at least a 20 year runway in front of us.

Having said that, TRP's Keystone XL is potentially in Biden's crosshairs. The research I have done is a) if KXL is constructed, then good for TRP, as it is apparently not priced in to its stock price; b) if KXL is flushed, then also good for TRP as the uncertainty is removed and TRP has plenty of other growth projects in the process of being approved/constructed; c) also if KXL is flushed, TRP would have so much free cash flow, that it would be a "cash cow".

The reason for my question is I have a almost full position in TRP and I view TRP as very cheap right now and was going to top it up. Your thoughts please?

Thanks...Steve

Q: Please comment on earnings. Stock seems to have lost some pizzazz. Is it time to take the money and run?

I would like to see a weekly earnings calendar. The TMX site used to provide this service but no longer does. I would at least like to see projected reporting dates in company profiles.

Thanks for your consideration.

Q: Hi team
this stock has increased his /her dividend for many consecutive years

I am aware that ATCO which owns a big chunk of Cu.ca has taken a beating as well

do you think that the dividend is safe (wonder what is the pay out ratio)
and the yield is not too high

wonder what is the reasons for the recent pull back ?

do you think it is a value trap of it is safe to start a partial position

I am looking at dividend income as well as some capital appreciation
(try not to lose too much capital as I am retired)
thanks
I have already got FTS, EMA and NPI

Michael
