Q: Retired dividend-income investor. I see your Income Portfolio is sitting on 7% cash. Any plans to deploy soon or do you want to keep that cash for strategic reasons?

I'm sitting on 6% cash...just wondering whether to continue to deploy monthly on a steady state basis or hold?

Thanks...Steve

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.
