Q: re Pembina PPL--what am I to make of the "straddling the fence" stance concerning pipeline building appearing in the media? Has this been known for years and I'm just hearing of it? Is there more to it than is getting press now? it likely to affect the stock price? Thanks so much for a neutral place to go for information.

Q: PPL (Pembina Pipelines) is asking its shareholders for permission to issue new classes of preferred shares to finance expansion and special projects. Do you think there is a strong liklihood this will reduce the dividend rate on common shares? If yes, should I get out now? PPL has given me 36% on my investment in the last year, so I don't want to bail out unless I have to.

Q: Today (24/Jan/13) you answered a question (from Sam) comparing 2 pipelines (PPL & IPL.UN) for growth & dividends. You favoured PPL for higher dividend & faster expected earnings. I see the higher dividend but PPL also has a higher P/E (from Globe & Mail) - wouldn't that make it more expensive? or does one compare the P/Es to the Forward P/Es to determine expected growth on earnings? Please could you explain.
