Q: Do you think it's necessary to hold both US and Canadian utilities in a diversified portfolio? I'd like to add to both my non-Canadian position and utilities, so XLU seems like a good way to kill two birds. I currently don't hold any Canadian utility companies.

Q: I hold AQN and have been very happy with it, but a proposed amendment to the share unit plan has me concerned. The proposal is that the maximum number of shares "available for issuance from treasury upon the vesting of the performance share units and restricted share units outstanding be increased from a fixed maximum of 500,000 common shares" to 7,000,000 shares. Based on the total shares out there, is the current 500,000 low by industry standards, or is the proposed 7,000,000 high. Insiders are proposing this, and I assume that only insiders would benefit from it. Could you provide your views on this proposal.
Thank-you
