Q: Hi Peter and Ryan,

POE's $0.40 special distribution has left me a little confused as to when we should expect payment. I've included text below from their February 1, 2016 press release:

Key dates are:


-- The record date to determine shareholders entitled to receive the
distribution will be February 10, 2016
-- Due bill trading will commence on February 8, 2016 (two trading days
before the record date, so that trades settling after the record date
have due bills attached)
-- The payment date for the distribution will be February 16, 2016
-- The ex-distribution date will be February 17, 2016 (the trading day
after the payment date, so that trades on and after that date will not
have due bills attached)
-- The due bill redemption date will be February 19, 2016 (the second
trading day after the ex-distribution date, when all trades with due
bills attached have settled)

Thanks

Dave

Q: Could I have your thoughts on this Oil/Gas...mainly gas company. I have been following this company for a while now. They seem to have just hit a great well. Mid to longer term contracts are being signed on a fairly quick pace. My issues are with the promoters and members of the company. Do you have any insight. I remember another company that had promoters like this and was starting a pipeline...delays..cost overruns ..bought up other properties while ballooning the debt and being sold for pennies. MMT. Once again thank you for your thoughts. Jason

Q: sog is offering current shareholders to participate in a debenture offering. The way that I read it the proceeds will be used to pay off the Bank lines and the excess will be used to fund operations. The debentures< I assume would be the 1st charge on the assets and would be paid 1st in case of banktruptcy, is this the case? They pay 8% and are convertible into shares at $.09. Seems like the insiders are going to fund the major portion.How do you feel about this Debenture.

Thanks for your thoughts

Q: Hi 5i: I've been searching for info on existing North American LNG plants. Three questions (please charge as you see fit): (1) do you know if the US currently have any working export LNG plants? (2) if there are working export plants, which (if any) Canadian companies will be piping gas to them? (3) are there any Canadian companies planning to pipe gas to any US LNG plants that are under development? Many thanks.

Which global energy ETF, in C$, would be your top pick? Thanks for your advice.

Q: My energy weight is very small overall. Currently holding CPG, VET, CNQ, SU, ENB and TOU. The only energy position not paying me a dividend to wait for a recovery is TOU. Would a switch to PEY be prudent to collect a dividend? Would PEY carry more risk than TOU. Do have have concerns with any of my other energy holding? Best, Don
