Q: Hi, I would not touch the common stock after the announcement about Air Canada but I see that the company has a bond maturing in May 2019 so about 1 year before the air canada contract expires. It currently trades at 95$. Before the announcement they traded at a premium, around 103$. Is this a good opportunity or am I missing something ? Thanks!!

Q: The Telus earnings release includes a statement that they raised the Q dividend 7.1% to .4925 (from .48). Looks to me like a 2.6% increase. Am I missing something here? Perhaps the 7.1% (incorrectly) includes a 2nd increase that they may make later this year (as they did in 2016)?? Thanks

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan & Co.
I've been holding Keyera for over 5 years, mostly for the income. They announced a 6% dividend increase yesterday, along with quarterly earnings. Can you please comment on the latest quarterly results wrt volumes, cash flow, and whether KEY can continue to increase its dividend by 5-6% per year looking forward?
Many thanks,
Brian

Q: I will have no other income in retirement and am looking to build a non-registered portfolio of dividend stocks for retirement as per an article you shared : http://business.financialpost.com/personal-finance/you-can-earn-50k-in-tax-free-dividends-but-theres-a-catch-you-cant-have-a-job. What would be a list of candidates good for a long-term hold where I just collect the dividend to live off? Thanks.

Q: I am looking for an ETF to replace my maturing corporate bonds as part of my fixed income portfolio. I am thinking of buying HAB. I also currently own HFR which I bought last year. Any thoughts on HAB or do you you suggest something else to provide reasonably stable returns.

Q: Further to Andrew's question re EIF, I attended their annual meeting in Winnipeg this morning. Part of the earning miss is that the company serviced 12 aircraft over the winter, when business is slower, rather than space the work throughout the year. This impacted the last quarter's earnings, but the company predicts earnings will improve in the next two quarters.
