Q: I would like to add two companies to my portfolio to increase my US dividends. What would you pick from these 5? Currently NTR and QSR have a higher yield. Does this indicate a higher risk and should I look at a lesser Yield in order to preserve capital?

Q: Good morning and Happy Canada Day!
Thoughts on Evertz quarter and what your expectation of where the dividend goes from here. Would you expect them to return to .18 per quarter in short order or will we see a further cut ? Do you consider the dividend cut prudent or is it possible they are trying to chase away public shareholders and take the company private in the near term?
Thanks Rob

Q: Good morning ,I have a half position in BCE and I was going to fill the position with Telus. Do you recommend doing this? I'm a long term investor. I am slowly moving my portfolio to income stream/dividends as I will be retiring soon (within the next year).

Q: Hi, my wife has some cash sitting in a Corporate account and we are looking to invest the funds in stocks. I know you can invest in ETF's, stocks, bonds, etc. but can you tell me what kinds of stocks are best to invest in, considering taxes, withholding taxes, etc. Is it better to invest in growth stocks or dividend stocks, US or CDN stocks? What are some other factors to consider? We are well diversified in our personal accounts and looking for long term growth. Thanks for all your help!

Q: You consistently state that Enbridge is one of your favorites. Why? In light of the current anti-carbon sentiment of the general public and current sadsack government I am seriously considering selling. Sure the dividend is great, but in 5 years the stock price has declined from $60 to $40. What could possibly happen to have the price appreciate back up to the $60 level?

Q: I sold SIA a month ago, mainly for tax loss purposes. I can buy it again at roughly the same price, my thesis being that all the bad news is out, so it should not go down much further. My main question is: is the dividend fully funded, i.e. should we expect a cut in the future? This is for an income portfolio. Thanks.
