Q: How likely is is that the Feds permit the merger of Rogers and Shaw but then allow foreign ownership of telecoms in Canada. If so, which of the two, Telus or Bell, is likely to be bought out? Even if they are not bought out, Bell and Telus might still do better with less competition. Or the Feds may impose conditions on the merger that benefit BCE and Telus. In any event, I am not sure there is any downside to owning Bell or Telus, and the real possibility of capital appreciation. I leave out Cogeco in my analysis as the controlling family appears not interested in a takeover.

Q: ALREADY HAVE A 5 PERCENT HOLDING IN TELUS AND AM THINKING OF ADDING BCE TO THE SAME POSITION. IS THIS TO MUCH IN A 68 YEAR OLD RETIREES PORTFOLIO? MY THINKING IS REDUCING RISK IN CASE OF A SIZEABLE CORRECTION AS THE GAINS HAVE BEEN ADDING UP. IF YOU HAVE A COUPLE OF BETTER INCOME IDEAS IDEAS THAT WOULD BE APRRECIATED. THANKYOU
