Canadian Energy Trusts: The Best Long Term Income and Dollar Hedge?

IMO one of the best Canadian royalty trusts just announced that it will convert to a corporation and continue to pay a high dividend: Crescent Point Energy. Very well managed, aggressively hedged, a big player in the high netback Canadian Bakken area. CPGCF in the US and CPG-UN.TO, but I guess it will lose the UN once it becomes a regular corporation.

The High Dividend Stock Investor's Collapsing Dollar Survival Guide, Part 3

Atlantic Power is a good company but it only yields 16% now. It seems like he got 20% by taking the stock price in USD and comparing it to the yield which is really in CAD. Price in USD=$5.29; Yield in CAD=$1.09

Price in CAD=$6.79; so real yield is 16%

It is a good company and is among the best, even with these numbers, IMO.
