Q: Do the American Muni bonds make a good investment for a Canadian taxpayer? I understand Muni bonds are tax-advantaged for US taxpayers and may not be available to Canadians (?). And/Or : What about the new I Bonds I the US, now much publicized in the US financial press, for example Barrons has an article on the new series I Bonds in its November 1 issue. Do such securities make sense for a Canadian taxpayer, assuming they are even available to Canadians? Is there an equivalent in the Canadian bond world? (Has to be available through online brokers-- instruments are not, e.g CASH and HSAV are not available at RBC-DI but one of the above is available on iTRADE)
Q: Hi Peter,
Why has AQN done so poorly ? Your previous comments indicate its sector weakness, but could you explain this. Is it due to the cost of their debt financing ? Valuation ? What would you expect from AQN longer term and would you have a strong preference for an alternative name (FTS ? H ?); thank you.

Q: I am interested in purchasing a Canadian renewable energy company, for an investment income-focused portfolio (retired individual); prefer eligible dividend (eg, BEPC vs BEP.UN). Anyways, among 3 options listed (AQN, BEPC, NPI), is there one that you would favor (long-term hold for income generation)?
Q: Hi,
I'd be very interested in your take on the earnings for DVN. The 13% drop seems excessive to me, however I expect there was something in the earnings that I missed, but rang alarm bells for others?
Thanks for your insightful work!
