Enbridge

Can I tell a funny story? Okay.

I think it's Enbridge.

They have the gas to one of my properties in Sarnia, Ontario.

So they're hassling me.

My property manager wasn't paying the $70 bill and they're calling my cell phone.

So finally I call the guy.

He goes, this is Enbridge.

And I say, yeah, you're calling me about this bill.

Ron, when you also put in there your usual, how many, the gain in stock price over, usually over five years, how do we, if you were to take this as a geographical sector, how does that compare in general with other investments?

Over the last five years, I mean, of course, when I put five-year gain in stock price, for example, and you look at a company like Enbridge, well, Enbridge is only up 40% over five years, but it's got a 5.5% dividend a year, and if you add what they're up, plus their dividend, they've grown at about 13% a year, which is pretty good.

It's well above the 10% average, And of course, you know, most people want to compare themselves with U.S. tech stocks.

But if you look at the Canadian markets and you compare them against European markets, Asian markets, this little portfolio here would have stood up very well.

You know, the old story, if you're going into a gold mining area, sell them the picks and the shovels.

And that's certainly what finning does.

Now, Enbridge and TC Energy are the next two on our list.

ENB, T, and TC Energy, which is the old TransCanada Pipe, TRP, both trade in Toronto.

So President Donald Trump and senior financial regulators convened leading figures from the cryptocurrency and digital assets industries at the White House on Wednesday, underscoring an aggressive push to solidify American leadership in the sector.

That sentence means to me that our government is aware of the BRICS nations and the UNIT and Enbridge and what is going on around us.

According to a report from Fox Business, the high-level gathering centered on accelerating the Clarity Act, a bipartisan measure designed to bring long-sought regulatory certainty to the rapidly evolving market.

So that should not be confused with the Genius Act that said you are going to have a stable coin.

I should probably stop the show here and never do another one, not renew, not even come back next week because everything we've talked about in four and a half years has led us to this point.

We're financial advisors.

So we focus on the financial side of life And I've been telling you, I've been warning you, I've been talking about Enbridge, I've been talking about the BRICS nations, I've been talking about, you know, the executive orders the last four and a half years.

It's all coming down to this.

There's the brownfield expansions, which are, you know, largely aren't dependent on new pipe in the ground, but are more kind of fall into the optimization bucket.

So the first one is Enbridge.

ML01, so an optimization on the Enbridge main line.

A smaller optimization, about 150,000 barrels a day, but it does provide added relief in a tight market.

So we expect that pipeline to come online in the next 12 months.

So I do have some great referrals.

In Utah, we have our gas company is Enbridge, I believe, and they'll do energy audits for $25.

So I can deliver on my end.

But the other portion, because it doesn't make sense for someone with single pane windows or no insulation.

So fast forward, I was at...

There was a job that had come up for Enbridge Energy at home, and it was like...

Where's home? Grand Rapids, Minnesota.

So this job came up in Hill City, which is 10 miles from my house.
