Q: could you give me your opinion on if you were starting a new dividend stock between AltaGas or emera which would you choose. Emera has just guided down dividend growth for a few years and just wondering your take on both as a dividend investment with some growth.
thanks
Q: Our worst performing investment is CIX, which we've held for several years, that's currently 40% below book (inc. of dividends). It represents 1% of our investments, 3% of our equities. The charts seem to indicate it's falling even faster in recent times. Your advice please.
Q: For Canadian dividend investing, this article is an amazing piece of work and a superb reference.

Q: Good morning,
Looking to understand BCE 's ongoing weakness, especially relative to Telus, in light of a more than a 1% differential in yield in BCE's favour. Is the market telling us something that we are missing? Should we be buying or reevaluating?
Q: Good day to all. I am looking for a few very good value stocks. It seems that many investors are beginning to do the same. I am well diversified so your answer could include any sector and dividends are not that important but would be a nice bonus.
Thank you
Have a great weekend
Q: I have a question about MSI. I have held MSI for some time and have a significant capital gain. I am currently wondering whether I should be selling some/all of the position based on its high valuation, lack of dividend increases and fairly static stock price. However, I am attracted to its potential stability in a down market and the overall "steady eddy" nature of the business.
May I have your thoughts?
Thanks
Q: A & W issued a press release today that they are out of stock their new veggy Beyond Meat Burger and have to take it off the menu for now. It will be interesting to see if the robust sales will make a material impact on royalties.
Q: I am thinking of buying some altagas. I have a very astute investor friend who thinks it is a great time to buy because it got beat up too much over the WGL acquisition, has a lot of upside and pays a nice dividend while you wait. What is your opinion ?
Q: I own both Eci and Bip.un in a registered account.
I am curious how you see the shares of Bip.un reacting to the tender. Will this not be diluting Bip.un shares forcing them lower. Would it be wise to sell and repurchase later or purchase another company you recommend.( please give examples)
Thanks Drew
Q: Hi all, With today's (16 Aug) climb, I am almost breaking even with this one after more than a year. I am trying to position my portfolio with dividend stocks that have some growth opportunity (like many I have observed here). Should I take the opportunity and get out and look for a dividend stock with more growth in this space? Or is this possibly the beginning of an uptrend in DR.
With the US likely to increase interest again soon, is this bond fund likely to be impacted to the downside or are the durations short enough to be able to adjust appropriately?
Q: I would like to reduce my utility / infrastructure holdings by one or two names. These are all partial positions except for FTS, which is full. Could you rank 1 - 7 in terms of keep:sell or just suggest one or two sell candidates? Thank-you.
Q: Hi there, I owned ala.r which were converted into ala. On my statements, the firm took back all the dividend income I received from March to July of this year (even though it was supposed to be interest income, not dividend income). I got a return of capital and interest equaling the dividend amount clawed back. The vast majority was ROC, with minuscule interest. Ala.r was supposed to pay an equivalent amount of interest to holders of ala.r as the dividend was. So since March 18 I did not receive that, just a little interest. The way I calculate it, Alta gas got the use of my investment for five months basically free. Do you agree. Tx. John
Q: What are your thoughts on the latest quarter? Again it seems to be below estimates (at least on Earnings) but it appears the market likes it, despite the loss after one-time adjustments.
