Q: After the failure of the harvest, it is undergoing pressure, and also from the maple sugar side. However, at $ 4.83 (close on Thursday) it now has a dividend over 7%. I know it isn't a growth stock, and I know it has high debt - notwithstanding that, for a dividend investor is this a reasonable safe dividend? Also, the second part of my question is whether there is SOME growth to be expected to return to its historical levels after a year or two when (hopefully) the problems are in the proverbial rear-view mirror?
Thanks! … Paul K

Q: Hi, the listed shares currently make up my portfolio in relatively equal portions. I was wondering--with the $6000 TFSA amount, do any of these names stick out to top up with the full $6k or partial amounts? Alternatively I have been following Savaria SIS and considering initiating a new position? Thanks so much for your guidance.

Thank you.

Q: Good afternoon,
Can you help bring some light to the Rogers Sugar news release and halt, sounds like they are issuing 85M debt to pay off existing 60M debt and some other items I don't fully comprehend other than Mr. Market doesn't like the news and the stock is down 2% Tuesday. What are your thoughts on this development and stock drop?

Thanks,
Craig

Q: Hi 5i Team,
Can you please comment on Rogers Sugar's earnings release today? There are so many adjustments to their numbers that I find it difficult to gauge how good a quarter it was. I hold this stock primarily for income. Can you please comment on the safety/ability to grow the dividend, and free cash flow trend over the past few quarters?
Many thanks,
Brian

Q: I have decided to pay off my mortgage, primarily because I think I have had a good run with equity returns outperforming by a good margin the cost of carrying my mortgage. Although I am not concerned about a large correction I think the risk return is swinging a bit more towards paying off the 2.79% mortgage. I will likely sell 3 or 4 of the following to do so: bbd, mal, pza, rsi, rus, tpk, wjx, dht. Please rank in order in which you would sell the companies listed, you can assume none will adversely affect my current asset allocation. I realize it is quite a mixed bag...but they are some of the ones I hold that aren't in your balanced portfolio so kills 2 birds by getting them out of my current holdings...
