Q: Today Enbridge Inc. (ENB) announced they are purchasing Spectra Energy Corp (SE) in an all stock deal.

I own Enbridge in my non-registered account (in order to take advantage of Canadian Dividend Tax Credit) and I own Spectra in my US $ RRSP (in order to minimize taxes on US dividends which are treated like interest income).

I want to participate in both the Canadian and US energy infrastructure (pipeline, midstream processing) market.

My question is what can I replace Spectra Energy in my RRSP with? I own Kinder Morgan (underwater), Oneok (above water) and recently sold off Williams (too much drama) in the RRSP account.

Am I better off to sell Spectra now or wait for the Enbridge merger and then sell off the Enbridge or even keep Enbridge in my RRSP as a US holding. Or do I increase my holding(s) in Kinder Morgan or Oneok?

Thanks for the excellent service.

Q: What's your opinion on United Natural Foods (NASDAQ)? It claims to be North America's biggest supplier of natural foods. Natural Foods seems like an emerging/growthy segment. Is this a good investment? How does it compare to While Foods Market Inc.?

Q: Hi Team

I hold about 16% U.S. stocks in U.S. dollars. I am also well balanced, holding many within your 3 PFs (mostly the Balanced PF). I am thinking of buying ULTA with new US$ (1.25%). The stock is down about 6% or so in the last week. The only news I find is that ULTA is aligning with the Proactive product, which I would have thought would cause an uptick. Do you feel this is a good time to buy? Or is there a problem with ULTA?

I'm so very glad I joined in early 2014. What a difference you guys have made!!!

Q: What are your thoughts on Brinker International Inc (EAT).
I purchased this recently and it has a good run up in the short time I have owned it. Should I continue to hold. My concern is that revenue growth seems to be flat but earnings growth good. Usually this is unsustainable over the longer term.
Thank you for your service. I learned about Brinker (high ROE) from an earlier question posted on July 25.

Q: I saw your recent response indicating this was ok for income. In looking at this company it appears to be US based (even though it does trade in Toronto)..so if we are using a non-registered account the dividends would not be eligible for the dividend tax credit and the investment would be considered foreign for reporting purposes...perhaps one of your members that has received dividends could confirm this? thanks!
