Q: I hold the above in a taxable account focused on dividend income. I also hold FTS separately. Increasingly I believe that there will be increased demand for renewable power to drive AI, electric charging cars etc... Do you have any recommendations that are dividend payers that would play into this theme of increased power demand?
Would you add to or remove any of the above based upon company fundamentals?

Thanks

Q: Presumably ZSP and ZSP.U are identical except for the currency. Does ZSP.U also pay its distributions in USD? I currently own ZSP. Do you if it is possible to directly convert ZSP to ZSP.U or do I have to through the process of selling ZSP, converting the cash to USD and then buying in ZSP.U using USD? Thanks as always. Your service is great.

Q: SUncor has suggested that once they reach 12B in debt that they will return 75% of free cash flow to shareholders. As a shareholder I like that. My question is why wouldnt paying down debt be a better marker for shareholders? While I recognize that the Company can write off interest expense against their income, it seems incongruous.

Q: My question is on SHOP. We saw META drop from $493 to $414 because of a bad report. But being the powerhouse, loved stock that it is, it has come back to nearly where it dropped from.
Can SHOP do the same since it is also a darling?
