Q: ALA-tsx was halted yesterday, Thursday, Jan. 12, around news reported in "The Wall Street Journal" (the only place I could find info at 4:00 pm..)
"Canada’s AltaGas in Talks to Combine With D.C. Utility WGL
Deal could value the parent of Washington’s natural-gas utility at $5 billion to $6 billion"
Do you have more info or thoughts? I am not a subscriber to the Journal so could not read the complete article.
I suspect this will be good for both companies.
I hope ALA does more dividend increases & wonder what will happen to ALA's DRIP/SPP plan I have been in for years.

Q: I was contemplating purchasing shares of AQN until I saw a January 6, 2017 report by S&P Capital IQ that rates the company a "Strong Sell". This appears to fly in the face of the "Buy" rating by a number of other analysts. Is one negative report enough to give you pause?
Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
I realize you do not cover USA stocks and may want to take a pass...I will not be offended. Iteris has just hit a new high and I am wondering if I should sell or hold for a while. So in your eyes can you give me the big picture. Does it appear to have new legs and could possibly run another 10-20% in the coming months?
Thanks for your guidance which is always valuable to us little guys!

Q: What are thoughts on Q1 results for Caldwell Partners? It seems cost are more in line to deliver stronger profits going forward and a sustainable dividend. The Company maintains a very good balance sheet and management and directors have been buying stock. Do you think the stock price today is very inexpensive?
Q: Peter, I'm interested in increasing my gold exposure in registered accounts for diversification purposes and would appreciate your latest take on the gold royalty company Sandstorm (SSL-T, SAND-N) in the wake of today's announcement of record production in Q4 2016. I have heard good things about its CEO Nolan Watson.
Q: I know you took this company out of your growth portfolio, but since the US election this stock is been going up. I went onto there web site and listened to the Bloomberg and Bnn interviews and i love what they are doing, they seem to be light years ahead of conventional construction, and this has to be the future. With 80 % of there business in the USA and expanding around the world, would this not qualify as a good growth company for a long term hold. Do you ever put companies back in the growth portfolio after removing them?
Thanks once again.

Q: What are your thoughts on PWT as a possible turnaround? It was on the edge for a while but it appears as though it has successfully found some solid ground. Is it worth jumping in? Have debt levels been resolved?
