Q: I am looking at either EIF or PKI for a long term hold in my RRIF. Solid dividend coverage and a growing dividend with present yield of at least 4% is required. Which would you recommend ?Do you have any other suggestions of Canadian companies other than your Income Portfolio Model? Thanks. Derek

Are there any CDN ETF’s , other than ARKK:CA that you would recommend ? This would be for my TFSA where I put my riskier investments.

Q: In my spousal RRSP, I hold a handful of US dividend stocks as well as several ETF’s (VOO, VGG, XIT, FIE, ZRE). The split is about 50/50 between stocks and ETF’s. My question is regarding VGG. I think you have said in the past you prefer VOO, and VGG is not as efficient in an RRSP as the distributions are subject to withholding tax. For me, VOO and VGG have both averaged around 10% since I bought them. I keep debating if I should 1) swap VGG with the US$ equivalent 2) move VGG into VOO 3) move VGG into individual stocks or 4) do nothing and continue to hold VGG. Could I please get your take? Thanks.

Q: TMX is coming online in less than a year and Enbridge expects a drop in shipping volumes so that its Mainline is running at 95%. I see that you are still recommending Enbridge, but do I need to be worried about this? Enbridge has lots of debt and its free cash flow does not cover its dividend. If their operating cash flow drops from the loss in volume, could that not affect the dividend? On the other hand, it also has numerous projects underway, so maybe those will compensate for the loss? Thanks.
