Q: Next year I have to withdraw 5.28% from my RRIF account. Instead of investing the amount in a GIC for 1year, what dividend stocks would you recommend for 1 year that gives me a good dividend, are relatively safe and has some growth. Or is better to go to a GIC?

Q: Hi guys,
I have to admit, what Altagas is doing here isn't all that clear and I have the following email from RBC Direct Investing just moments ago, so am concerned this will drag the (already beaten up) stock lower, at least in the short term. Your thoughts are, as always, most welcome!

Q: WONDERING WHY THE DIV YEILD IS SO HIGH FOR THIS COMPANY.
IS IT SAFE? DO YOU EXPECT ANY SIGNIFICANT GROWTH HERE.
I SEE IT IS IN YOUR INCOME PORTFOLIO SO YOU MUST SEE SOMETHING IN IT. DO YOU PLAN ON REMOVING IT OR TRIMMING THE HOLDING IN THE NEAR FUTURE?
THANKS

Q: Even after today's move, Linamar trades at 6.2 times 2019 earnings. It's growing at around 8-10 percent per year, with a good balance sheet and proven management. It is very cyclical and a recession is likely on the way one of these years, but this valuation seems silly. Am I wrong?
Q: Hey guys,
Okay, I'm a bit confused on Alta Gas. They are splitting up the company into US and CDN operations. Now they've made a purchase for about $230 million.
My questions are as follows:
1. Does it seem likely that the dividend will be cut once the company is split?
2. Do you think management knows what they are doing? It's hard to tell if they are good at what they do or if all these moves are "Hail Marys".
3. Do you think the CDN operation, when it IPOs, is worth a look?
Thanks!

- Brookfield Infrastructure Partners L.P. (BIP.UN)

Q: In my husbands lif account we are going to need to replace enercare with safe dividend stocks. Sectors are not important. Current holdings are : A and W, BGI.un, Crius, Gamehost, RNW. Current dividends are greater than the withdrawal. We would be looking to add stocks whose dividends would be reasonable safe in an economic slow down.
How do you feel about the following strategy and please feel free to offer other suggestions or comments:
Bip.un, Bce, Alta gas, Bns-
Either fortis or Aqn
And then something with growth potential such as a corby ( as it has no debt) or transcontinental ?
We are also open to other suggestions.
Thank you.

Q: Please provide your thoughts on this ETF. Thanks.
Q: Hi, I like all the individual Brookfield entities and there nice dividends in most cases.If I like all 5 individuals that I follow what is more prudent... buying Bam.a as itself or all 5 .would return including dividend be the same?
Q: I am retired and try to have a portfolio that pays me a dividend, is relatively safe and shows a little growth. My portfolio is primarily made up of banks, pipelines, telecoms and utilities. I own these listed utilities but am wondering if I have too much overlap. If you were to recommend selling one of them, which one would it be ?

Q: I have 7% of my portfolio in ENB. Should I be concerned about dividends and further erosion in capital? For 2 to 5 years, should I hold it or sell it partially or in full? In case of selling, what should I replace with - a good dividend player with a moderate capital appreciation at medium risk? Thank you.
