Q: I own Pason Systems in my RRSP and am now down 50%. I know that you have sold it out of your Income Portfolio because of what is going on in the industry. I consider Pason has strong management ( will adjust to the changes affecting the company) and a solid balance sheet. I think I should continue to hold as I have the time especially considering the dire situation that the oil industry is in. What is your view. Thanks.

Q: Hey, First time asking a Q ever..

For BPY.UN, are all their leases longer in nature and how much in danger are they in cutting they divvy? I would guess some of their tenants might be in danger if this keeps up but the contracts should be solid. Thoughts on risk/return for BPY.un?

Same questions for SRU.UN.

Thank you

Q: Hi Peter & 5i,
These are preferred minimum rate reset shares. Both have a minimum reset at 4.90%. Never to be reset at below this rate.
My questions:
1. If there is a minimum rate reset, investors are not concerned about falling rates (because falling rates don't affect these) but they are concerned about the ability of TC and PPL to pay the future dividends.
2. In your opinion should investors be concerned about the ability to pay the preferred share dividends? (There are lots of common share dividends that would be cut before the preferred share dividends).
Thank you for your answer and calmness during these unforseen times.
