Q: Can you compare and contrast these 2 etfs. I've always leaned towards CDZ on the basis that the research shows dvd growers perform statistically better in the long run and thus also paying the higher MER was worth doing. However it seems VDY is performing as good or better and provides a higher dvd stream. I'm thinking I should swap.

Thank you for the ongoing sage commentary.

Thank you

Q: hello 5i:
reviewing previous questions from members, I take it that TOU and CNQ would be your two favourite energy companies with diversification for oil and nat gas. Is that correct?

Can you reiterate the yields of these two (including the special dividends) and your take on the sustainability of the dividends? Are debt levels moving down? Are these two cheap on a last 5year comparison (PE, earnings yield, P/S, P/FCF and enterprise value)?
thanks

Q: Hello Peter,
Algonquin Power has a current dividend rate of. 6.72 percent given the current price of 14.55 cdn according to yahoo. Does this rate include the conversion to Canadian currency. I was thinking of buying AQN over Canadian Apartment Reit mostly due to the dividend (6.7 percent vs 3.53). I know it is not an apples to apples but from an upside both seem to be the same, approximately 30 percent. If you do think it is worth diversifying, is there another reit that pays high dividend but is considered stable. Thanks very much

Q: Hello 5i folks,
We are wondering what comments you have on the news we read in the local newspaper this morning concerning Fortis having avoided 2.2 billion in taxes over the last 5 years. The report was released by 'Canadians for Tax Fairness'.
We own Fortis shares and wonder if it is really the great company we think it is?
Thank you, Len
