Anyone know of a broker that will about trading on TSX but will let you keep share certificates rather than using a nominee account

Very good news possibly in the making for income trusts. If you read Iain Frasers comment near the bottom. I`m already very overweight these Gassy trusts but i`m tempted to add more.(especially daylight and Peyto).

"We think there is still much hope for the battered energy trusts. On Oct. 25/05 Prime Minister Harper said:" The government continues to overtax Canadians and run multi billion dollar surpluses, yet their first instinct is to attack an investment vehicle that can make the difference between bare survival and a dignified retirement for millions of Canadians." Well chosen words. We bring this subject up because last week a Conservative Party worker phoned to solicit my support; my reply was that Mr. Harper's change of mind had cost millions of us billions of dollars; how could we vote for him? The party member's reply was that just about everybody was saying the same thing. Mr. Harper almost has to change Flaherty's proposals. Also, the Liberals and the Bloc are soon to have a meeting on this issue. The position is that these two have 152 seats. If they can get three more, they win. We think it will be easy to get three more. We may be close to the low on the income trust index."

Many of these are still falling despite rising oil and gas prices and huge divi yields

Have you had a look at CGI? Seems to have a good record.

I am ready to buy natural gas, how much of an effect does nat gas prices have on energy trusts?

Glenn, yeah, some are languishing, but the monthly dividends come in at 8% p.a. and above after tax, so I am happy. There has been one real dog, High Arctic, but also two great runners, Fording Coal and Canadian Oil Sands. I sold all of Canadian Oil Sands, but too early at 30 cents. I also sold part of my Fording Coal position at 36.80 cents for a nice profit. Also, the rising CAN$ has overall raised the value of the portfolio but I have not even calculated that yet.
