Q: I just read a contrarian report on Seeking Alpha regarding these two companies. Can you comment on the debt levels of each and their respective survivability in a prolonged long low price nat gas environment. In an RRSP, could they be considered decent ‘flyers’ for a small (1%) stake?

Q: There are contradicting views on oil prices. My view is that as long oil supply stays the same as it is the US will continue to increase supply. OPEC will be forces to ramp up supply to counteract, driving prices down. If I’m right what effect will this have on gas produces esp in Canada? Will the abnormal cold spell in central Canada and the US increase the demand for gas . Who will be the major supplier Canada or US..Any particular company that benefits from this situation.

Q: Further to members' questions about pipeline equities: if oil transport is scarce, then demand for pipelines services should be essentially inelastic, such that (existing) pipelines can raise prices without losing traffic. Or is pipeline economics dominated by long-term contracts and capital replacement, such that inelastic demand doesn't help?
