Q: We are disposing of a rental unit and will be looking to invest in canadian dividend stock in an effort to reduce taxes. We are in our 70s so income is as or more important than capital gains. How do we determine if a companies dividends are eligible for the tax credit and where can I find a list of those companies? Am I correct that any portion considered return of capital is excluded? Could you recommend 10 of your favourites best ones first based on high yields and some measure of safety. Lot of questions so help yourself to many allotments as you wish..lol

From my perspective, this is a low score given the momentum in the stock price of LLY-N. Any insights about this conundrum, at least in my mind?.....As it makes me wonder about continuing to hold a small position in LLY-N.....Thanks......Tom
