I don't understand why you have to put your money in the misery of this BCE dog, when there is tons of better choices.
I hold AD.UN , DIV ,DBM, ENB, EIF, FCD,KEY, PLZ, BIP.UN ,BK, CPX ,C, MAIN, MKP, PPL, SPG, SRV, SRU, BCE, SIA. Accept PLZ and DBM ( red in one account, green in other) the rest of the holdings are in "dark" green . I hold a little bit of BCE just for decoration. A few days ago sold C in one account to switch to CM. My biggest holding is BIP.UN. In mean time ( today) I am experiencing a financial orgasm from BIP.UN and RWT up 6% on declared and increased dividend by 6.3 % . All portfolios are up 14% over 4 accounts. It is not only about dividends but also to grow capital. Right now sitting in the pub in Czech Republic and drinking one of the best beers in the world while collecting my dividends.
Cheers.
