PETRO-CANADA (NYSE:PCZ TSE:PCA): stick with it, we own it as well. It is a frustrating stock. Like integrated nature of Petro-Canada, enormous assets, deal in Libya mild positive. Cannot say it is expensive. With oil prices the way they are, it is a name that I do not think you can really go wrong. I would be a buyer of. Agree that spreads have to improve at some point. Not only refiners but also UTS project; think it will deliver a lot of value longer-term

PENN WEST (NYSE:PWE TSE:PWT.UN): I think all the oil gas royalty trusts swimming against tough tide, when to transition between trust and corporation. We like oil and gas sector, I try to keep investing as simple as possible. There are lot of oil and gas stocks in Canada that do not have to deal with political problems.
