Q: Further to your comments today about Superior, could you also provide the payout percentage and if you consider it a buy today as a new position. This would be more for income than growth. A couple other questions: where does most of their propane go - residential or commercial? How does propane fit into the current "green" initiatives relative to other hydrocarbons?
Thank-you

Q: I am interested in buying Kirkland or AEM on the NYSE .Would there be any consequence tax-wise with the dividend (us withholding tax).I have US $ that I like to invest and get a bit of dividend.When the US investments go over $100.000 would this trigger anything with the IRS?
Are there any other stocks that you would recommend to buy on the NYSE to avoid withholding tax on the dividend?(canadian stocks)

Q: I am considering either ENB or TRP as an income investment. Could you provide the dividend payout for each, and the percentage of gas vs oil in their pipelines. There is a lot of news about the potential closing of Enbridge line 5 in Michigan, and the affect on Canadians. But, what is the affect on the company? What percentage of their business depends on line 5 , and what are their alternatives if it is closed? Is TRP facing any similar challenges (aside from Keystone XL)? Which company do you prefer looking strictly at dividend sustainability and potential dividend growth?
Thank-you

Q: I have a considerable position in AQN and a small position in BEP.UN. In examing the one-year performance of the three companies I calculate that AQN's stock price is flat, BEP.UN is up about 40% and NPI is up about 45%. Would you recommend selling the laggard, AQN, and investing the proceeds into one or both of NPI and BEP.UN. Also is there a company in this sector that you would prefer over these three?
With appreciation,
Ed

Q: Good Day; I'm considering a switch between my current holding of AQN (I've had for a few years and have an unrealized capital gain) and moving into NPI with the recent acquisition news. The capital gain tax consideration aside, how would you compare the growth and dividend profile between these two companies for the medium to long term future based on the recent NPI acquisition.

thanks,

Q: Following up on my question from this morning, you suggested as "high dividend payers" a few companies that have comparatively low dividends to LIF or FSZ. They aere T (4.83%), AQN, (3.9%), NPIU (2.75%). I don't think these qualify as "high dividend payers". I acknowledge they may be better choices from a growth perspective, but I am looking specifically for companies with a high dividend (over 6% for sure), if any other than FSZ (on my radar!) and LIF (I own this) can be suggested. Growth is not important to me for this aspect of my portfolio. I am looking for companies you might suggest that have a dividend that you think is reasonably safe.
Thanks! Paul

Q: Good morning!
In a recent answer you mentioned LIF (Labrador iron Ore Royalty Corporation) by noting:
"For the 'high dividend' category we would consider it one of the better options."
Could you perhaps name a few others that are high dividend payers where you feel the dividends are reasonably secure? (I already have positions in ENB, BCE, PPL, and SIA)
Thanks! ... Paul

Q: There are a lot of prices outside of Tech, that are higher today than 2 - 5 Yrs ago. The ratings on a lot of these individual stocks, can also vary from "strong buy" to "overvalued". Given what we are going through with Covid, this has me concerned.
I really just want the dividend's and the original investment back, in say 15 Years. How ill advised would I be, to drop down to the above and maybe a few more like them. I will not out live hydrocarbons.
Thanks
