It sure has been a long time since I've posted one of these... To summarize all that has happened because of my partner's move, she liquidated her TFSA and non-registered accounts, moved her pension money into a locked RSP account, exchanged most of her CAD into USD (in hindsight, now would've been a better time to do so), and finally, after jumping through many hoops, is putting the money back to work.
I won't go through all the stock transaction details but since then we sold AGU, BMO, BNS, CAE, CCA, CJR.B, CTC.A, CUD, CWB, EIF, FTS, FTT, HSE, LB, LIQ, MG, MX, NA, PLZ.UN, RY, SAP, SU, TD, and XQQ.
We sold and repurchased in her LRSP ATD.B, CAR.UN, CM, EMA, MRU, REF.UN, TRP, and T.TO
Lots of stocks starting with C.
So far we have purchased ELS, EMN, LOW, SBUX, and SCHD. And with my employer now offering a low cost 401(k) plan, I've been regularly contributing to several Vanguard index funds.
All in all, this brings our total dividend income to US $3,242.30/year. Not quite where we left off before the move but we will reach that amount soon enough.
Going forward I will be reporting everything in USD since most of our assets are in this currency now.

Adding to our existing position, we were able to get another 22 shares of Emera for $1,000.
This stock provides us with an additional $46.19 annually based on its most recent dividend, bringing our total dividend income up to $5,094.68/year. We are finally past the $5,000 mark! Next stop, $10,000. Hopefully the second half comes faster than the first.

No new stock purchases this month. However as I mentioned in last month's post, I started peer-to-peer lending with Prosper. In September I deposited $2,000 into my Prosper account and so far $725 of it has been used to purchase loan notes. The remainder of the money will continue to slowly purchase new $25 notes using the filters I have set on an automated investing tool. More info on Prosper and the automated investing tool later in a detailed post.

There were no stock purchases this month besides the ~8 shares we received from various Canadian companies through automated dividend reinvestment programs. However, I did recently start investing in peer-to-peer lending through Prosper which I will write about September's edition.

Adding to our existing positions, we were able to get another 152 shares of Artis REIT for $2,000, 36 shares of Fortis for $1,500, and 28 shares of Suncor for $1,000.
We also started a new position in a Schwab International Equity ETF (SCHF) with 47 shares for $1,302.79. I was able to get this ETF commission free through my Schwab brokerage account and will most likely be adding to it frequently in the upcoming months.

We restarted several more of the positions I had ridden my TFSA of, including 27 shares of Royal Bank of Canada (RY) for $2041.47, 68 shares of Canadian Apartment Properties REIT (CAR.UN) for $1996.95, 80 shares of Metro Inc. (MRU) for $3470.79, and 18 shares of Canadian Tire Corp. (CTC.A) for $2385.99. Unlucky us, each stock ran up at least 8% compared to my selling prices before we were able to rebuy them.
Nevertheless, these stocks, respectively, provide us with an additional $85.32, $82.96, $44.80 and $37.44 annually based on their most recent dividends. This brings our total dividend income up to $3729.37/year.

To finish clearing out my TFSA, I sold all my shares of Liquor Depot (LIQ), Canadian National Railway (CNR), Canadian Tire Corp (CTC.A), iShares MSCI World Index ETF (XWD), Royal Bank (RY), and Artis REIT (AX.UN). My returns, including stock appreciation (or depreciation) and dividends, were respectively -31%, 21%, -4%, 13%, -9%, and -22%. It's unfortunate I had to sell most of these stocks at a loss because of the market timing but I'll be trying to restart these positions soon. These final sales further reduce our annual dividend income by $929.34.
Immediately after selling LIQ, I rebought 213 shares for $1558.63 in my partner's TFSA. I also rebought 63 shares of CNR for $4982.58 and 44 shares of EMA for $2000. This provides us with an additional $254.70 annually based on their most recent dividends.
All of these transactions bring our total dividend income to $3478.89/year.

To clear out my TFSA, I have so far sold all my shares of Alimentation Couche-Tard (ATD.B), Emera (EMA), Metro (MRU), Canadian Apartment Properties REIT (CAR.UN), Jean Coutu Group (PJC.A), and ATCO (ACO.X). My returns, including stock appreciation and dividends, were respectively 115%, 32%, 91%, -4%, -15%, and -20%. These sales reduce our annual dividend income by $492.59.
Several days after selling ATD.B, I was able to rebuy 70 shares for $4149.79 (less than what I had sold my first 69 shares for) with my partner's annual TFSA contribution. This provides us with an additional $18.90 annually based on its most recent dividend.
All of these transactions bring our total dividend income to $4223.95/year.

We haven't contributed much money to our accounts lately because we were waiting for the new year to deposit $5500 into our TFSA's. That being said, we did add a bit to our existing positions; we were able to get 28 shares of Suncor (SU) for $1000 and 65 shares of CAE (CAE) for $1000.

I rarely sell stocks but this month I sold my entire position of Bird Construction (BDT) because their last dividend increase was almost 2 years ago. My total return, including stock appreciation and dividends, was 13%. This transaction reduces my annual dividend by $122.28.
With the proceeds of that sale I was able to add 99 shares to my existing position of Canadian Western Bank (CWB) for $2496.87.
I also started a new position in Cogeco Cable (CCA) with 45 shares for $3020.04.
These stock additions, respectively, provide me with an additional $87.12 and $70.20 annually based on their most recent dividends. This brings my total dividend income up to $4588.41/year.

With the stock market volatility and the cash I have been saving up these past few months, I was able to put quite a bit more money to work this month than usual.
Adding to my existing positions, I was able to get 23 shares of National Bank (NA) for $1000, 73 shares of CAE (CAE) for $1000, and 35 shares of Canadian National Railway (CNR) for $2547.
