Q: Hello,

We hold this U.S name in a registered account as with other U.S names and yet I notice on our statement that only this name gets deducted a "Non Resident Tax Withheld"

1) The Feb 26th dividend was reduced by 37% ! Did I get my calculation wrong? Could it really be 37%?
2) Why only on this name and not others?
3) If the yield has this handicap then shall I just sell and look for something else?

Many thanks

Q: I have recently added to VET and YGR to a reasonable weighting in my portfolio.
The gloom and doom news today of the Norway Sovereign wealth fund selling off oil and gas stocks across the board is causing quite a panic. Is there cause to be worried or is this a tempest in a teacup.

Q: Can you comment on the earnings of Athabasca Oil? Also, I understand its balance sheet has improved since it's recent asset sale. Can you tell me the debt burden it currently has. I am thinking of buying it for a several year hold, awaiting a return of better oil prices. Can this company, with its current balance sheet, survive several years if oil prices stayed down? Thanks for your help.

Q: Do you have an opinion about buying either of these at this time? Based on the company numbers you post here, the div yield is about the same but P/E is a bit lower on CNQ. Does the fact that SU is more vertically integrated help or hinder with future corp/stock growth? Do you see either co having a stronger financial position?
I wouldn't mind some capital appreciation but the yields are attractive and I'm thinking that the div is safe with both cos. To me, neither co likely has big upside but they both seem to trade in a somewhat narrow range and given current yields and where the prices are, is either a better buy now or would you hold off for lower prices yet?
Thanks
