Q: Given the announcement today of BCE selling its interest in MLSE, the market seems to be reacting somewhat positively to the news - I’m curious as what do you think is a comfortable level of debt that the market is looking for? How much more assets do you think the market would like BCE to shed and apply to debt reduction??
Q: assume you meant US$3,5 B for sale of MLSE. does this mean closer to 14% reduction in debt?
Q: Your thoughts please on the BCE news today?
Thx

Q: What do you think of FRU.ca vs NPI at these levels for a long term hold? Are there tax consequences for a royalty company I should be aware of?
I own CNQ, ENB, CPX, H and a little HSP already but I'm finding it hard to resist the dividends (and hopefully growth) of FRU and NPI. Should I add to one of the companies I already own or buy NPI or FRU as well?

Q: Hello Peter,
The utilities sector is moving up (assuming due to lower rates), but BEP.UN does not seem to get back to its old high; it seems to be range bound. Any idea why this is the case?

Q: I bought BIP.UN in a registered account about a year ago. Looking back, I would have been better to buy BIPC.
Looking forward ie over the long term, do you think that BIPC will continue to outperform on a total return basis?

Q: Hi there,
I’m a long term holder of NPI, of course it’s been very weak along with the renewable sector. Last several days it’s showing some life.
Is it just general movement with rest of the utilities in anticipation of lower interest rates or is there something else? Longer term HOLD ie. +3-5 years (also own CPX).
Thanks a lot!

Q: With the oil and gas stocks getting hit in recent days, I am considering taking a position in one dividend paying company once things appear to have settled a bit (as if I know). I have been looking at TPZ as a NG position or WCP for oil. Of these two, do you have a preference, based on company fundamentals combined with the commodity potential (ie NG or oil)?
Thank-you
Thank-you

Q: Good morning,
In an answer to Danny on August 13, you said that BCE's trailing twelve months dividend is around $3.7B, which is covered by the operating cash flow of $7.6B, I read a post from Reddit yesterday that says BCE's free cash flow payout ratio is 109% stating that its dividend is covered by debt and equity dilution. Can you explain why these numbers are so wildly different? Thanks very much,
