Q: Good morning,
Yesterday, I submited this question and never received an answer. My question was "would you invest in one of these companies? if yes, which one? In which order would put them in investment preference?
I am a long term investor particularly in companies who increases their dividend. The four above have increase their dividend in at least the last 6 yrs.
Thank you

Q: Two general questions:
My ACB on RPI is approaching zero. When I eventually sell, will Revenue Canada consider zero as the minimum possible ACB or am I expected to continue to calculate an ACB once it goes into negative territory?
This is likely more of an issue for my eventual estate, as I assume once one gets to ACB one just collects dividends unless management does something really silly. Is there any other reason to consider selling a reliable dividend payer once ACB gets to zero?

Q: What is your take of Transcontinental after the conference call?
I decided to listen to the conference call myself and felt even the analysts were somewhat discouraged.
However, the CFO's comments on hearing the last of printing issues seemed promising.
Much appreciated!

Q: Hi, based on the results, would you prefer to wait another quarter or two, before pulling the trigger to liquidate the position and free up the capital. Results seem to be a little bit reassuring and CEO sounded more optimistic about Coveris integration, this time around. Thanks
Q: Comment from Tony Marino president and CEO at VET at RBC global energy conference this week:
Under the current pricing environment, the company believes its dividend and capital program to be over-funded.
Vermilion expects to cover its dividend plus sustaining capital spend at a US$40/bbl WTI price, with growth capital covered
at US$50/bbl.
The company observed its elevated dividend yield but affirmed commitment to its current levels.
Reassuring for those worried!
