Q: 1) Even Stephen Poloz, Governor of the Bank of Canada, has set aside the issue of NAFTA claiming there remains uncertainty until he knows more about the nature of the risk, he will not focus of that topic. The much greater risk to Canada will be the US Tax Reform. Will Canadians also shift business to the States because it will save 50% in taxes. So, the tax reform is a far bigger issue than NAFTA. How would a Canadian company's move to the US affect me as a shareholder?
2) It appears the flight from income taxed states, especially California, to Texas and Florida particularly, will continue. Seven U.S. states currently don’t have an income tax: Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming. Residents of New Hampshire and Tennessee also, though they may pay tax on dividends and income from investments. I understand that four states, Minnesota, Alaska, Connecticut, and New Jersey, and the District of Columbia levy corporate income tax rates of 9% or higher. These are the States that may see the withdraw of many corporate headquarters. Six states, North Carolina, North Dakota, Colorado, Mississippi, South Carolina, and Utah, have top rates at or below 5%. Is there any benefit long term to investing in companies headquartered in non taxed States?

Q: In updating my investment spreadsheets I was surprised to see that I had somehow missed a decrease in D.UN's yearly dividend from $1.50 to $1.00. It appears to have happened in the second half of the year but the company's website is no help - the last post on the front page is from 2016. I find this very strange. I have searched high and low and can't find a press release. Can you shed any light?
Thank you.
Thank you.
