Q: I would appreciate your thoughts on purchasing some shares of ALC now that the unit price is below $10. I only own 100 shares bought at $15.92 six years ago in a TFSA account. The dividend has increased. Buying a few more shares would help bring down my book value and if sustainable, the dividend yield would be helped. As a transportation company is it worth holding for the long term? Buy, hold or sell? Thank you so much.

Does the Telehealth division of Telus appear to be growing and does it have a meaningful impact on the Revenue and Earnings?

Q: If I am enrolled in a drip, is the stock purchased at a discounted rate or the market price of a stock. I own the listed companies; are any of those are eligible for a discounted drip purchase price? or do you need to buy them directly from the company to qualify for the discount.

Q: Hello, what is your opinion of Quaterhill in today's market? I have owned this for sometime in a TFSA and have been in a losing position for a long time just collecting the div. Would you sell this take the loss and move the money into something with a potential better return like ATD.B, NTR or PLC these are also owned in the same account. Or would you wait another quarter or two? The virtual AGM is on April 15th. Thanks

Q: ENB vs PPL.....which would you prefer for a 3 - 5 year hold? Or half a position in each? Are the dividends safe? I'm looking for the dividend plus modest share price appreciation. Any other recommendations in this space?
Thanks for your help.

Q: I have been a holder of KEY for some time now. I have stayed with it as it went from a darling to a dog. It's current ratio and debt to equity ratio are not good and the price of nat gas is very low. Today they announced the temporary closing of 4 plants to consolidate operations. I think they are a good management team but am beginning to wonder why I'm being so faithful. Can I get your perspective. Hold or sell?

Q: hi
I own the above oil stocks. WCP is small and in TFSA, so I will keep it.
I have oversized position in Parex, but Vet and Fru are small. Looking to sell at least one, today, would you sell Vet or FRU or both ? I am comfortable with my position in Parex but wondering if better opportunities are available in other sectors. Which are your favorites sectors when coming out of this?

Q: I am retired and have both a cash and RIF account. In my cash account are the big 5 Banks, T & BCE, FRU & IPL. I see that IPL has cut the dividend & FRU has a "1,437% Pay out Ratio (PoR)!! I have mostly REITs in my RIF & EXE & CHE.
I'm not concerned re the banks or telecoms but the PoR of FRU, CHE & EXE are of concern to me. I also feel that in the longer term, the REITs will survive especially with interest rates so low. Also, to replace IPL would you consider PPL
Your thoughts please.

Q: Hi, INE has strongly outperformed pretty much all utilities including other renewables such as NPI, CPX, BEP and even AQN over the past 20, 50 and 100 days. Any plausible reason for this? Would Hydro Quebec’s investment mean that much? Would they stand behind INE in the event of significant pressure on INE should it occur? Thanks.
