  2. Happy to be a fellow shareholder with you Hawk. Oil and gas is so volatile and a totally different game to play. I believe you gotta sell at the tops and buy more at the lows if you really wanted to make a profit. As dividend investors, it's just another income source for us though. The pipelines are a totally different beast. They make money whether oil is up or down and acts as a toll booth. I like that. Less volatile for sure. Infrastructure and barriers to entry is costly and some of the permits are a nightmare to attain. Wide moat for sure.
    IPL is definitely the cheapest right now out of the 3 canadian pipelines i love which is Enbridge and TransCanada.
    Thanks for sharing and take care.
