Interesting discussion on dividends. I've been giving this some thought as well. The banks are paying yields that we may never see again and are highly unlikely to cut.

Another interesting one is the energy trusts. Even though they've all been cut a couple times I don't see crude prices staying at these low levels. It's simply unsustainable especially with the high costs the oil sands producers have to put up with. Remember tomorrow is the federal budget and you never know Flaherty might throw us a bone in the way of an extended deadline or a low across the board tax rate for the trusts. Not saying it will happen but could.
