more than adequately underpinning a 12% increase in the annual dividend coupled

• Big dividend increase underpinned by solid cash flow accretion. As part of the
transaction, ENF announced an intention to increase the annual dividend by
12% to $1.54/share (up roughly $0.16/share) underpinned by expected cash flow
accretion. As shown in Exhibit 2 on page 3, we estimate that the transaction
could add $0.28/share to 2015 ACFFO and while we expect accretion to moderate
over time due to the phase-in of cash taxes, we expect long-term cash flow to
adequately cover the increased dividend. Of note, management's guidance of
$150 million of cash flow before interest expense incorporates the expected cash
flows from Alliance in 2016 following the expiration of the existing contracts.
• Reinforcing the dropdown story. The most recent dropdown confirms Enbridge
Inc.'s commitment to ENF as a dropdown vehicle for modest sized transactions
(net of ENB's retained interest).
• Increasing estimates to reflect transaction accretion. Based on expected
accretion from the transaction, we have increased our 2014, 2015 and 2016
ACFFO/share estimates to $1.98, $2.07 and $2.03, respectively (up from $1.95,
$1.79 and $1.80).
• Increasing price target to $32.00 (up from $30.00). Our new price target reflects
a combination of accretion from the transaction in addition to a 1x EV/EBITDA
increase in our valuation multiple consistent with the increase for other energy
infrastructure stocks with dividend growth that we already published during our
restriction period.

• NAV growth story intact. We continue to see a leg up for the stock driven by
the realization of significant cost savings as well as positive operating leverage
to an eventual recovery in organic revenue growth. Our forecast translates to
a 2015E – 2018E NAV CAGR of 11%, which is at the upper end of the range
for our Canadian telecom and media coverage universe. Although our organic
revenue growth expectations remain modest (i.e., +0.2% in 2014E and +1.8% in
2015E), improving net sales across all segments is adding much needed visibility
to the revenue outlook and bodes well for an eventual uptick in organic revenue
growth.
• Modest cyclical tailwind appears to be emerging. For the first time since 2007,
management commentary points to the emergence of a modest cyclical tailwind.
Given the current business mix, structural headwinds in print and desktop and
what still appears to be a choppy global economic environment, we would expect
any tailwind to be much weaker compared to previous cycles. Nevertheless, a
5
tailwind potentially sets up for a phase of positive earnings surprises relative to
expectations beginning in 2015E/2016E.

North Kao study adds 310koz to Karma, further optimization likely to enhance
The completion of the PEA for the North Kao deposit at Karma is, in our view,
value accretive and adds 310koz to Karma's production profile towards the
end of the mine's life with the potential to bring these ounces in earlier as
additional drilling is completed. We retain our Outperform, Speculative Risk
recommendation and increase our target price from 65cps to 70cps.

• True Gold has released the Preliminary Economic Assessment for the North Kao
area of its Karma project in northern Burkina Faso. North Kao has an Inferred
Resource of 9.9Mt at an average grade of 0.98g/t hosting 312koz of gold. Based
on the study, the project should produce 118koz/year over a 2.5-year period
towards the end of mine life with an initial capital cost of US$17.5 million and a
strip ratio of 3.4:1. Unit costs are broadly in line with the rest of the deposit at US
$1.81/t mining, US$8.09/t processing and G&A at US$2.27/t. We have assumed
lower recoveries than the company at 85% compared to 94.6%, which results
in lower production and higher per ounce costs. Despite this, we believe that
this project is value accretive, increasing our NAV from US$263 million (C$0.64/
share) for Karma to US$288 (C$0.71/share).
• Management plans to carry out further work at North Kao to upgrade the
Resource from Inferred and bring the material earlier into the mine life; probably
year six rather than year nine. This would displace some lower grade material to
later years and would potentially increase our NAV from US$288 million to US
$296 million and our target price from C$0.70/share to C$0.75/share.

NA Precious Metal Equities: Q3/14 Preview
• We preview Q2/14 financial results for the North American gold producers in our
coverage universe
• With precious metal prices relatively flat quarter-over-quarter and many of the
producers having already delivered meaningful cost savings, we expect Q3 results
to be fairly uneventful from an earnings perspective.
• However, if gold and silver prices remain at current low levels, conference call
questions could be directed towards the ability for companies to re-work mine
plans, reduce costs further, maintain healthy balance sheets and in some cases
the ability to sustain current dividends.
Positive and negative surprise potential for Q3/14
• Positive surprise potential: Goldcorp and New Gold.
• Negative surprise potential: B2Gold, Detour, and Alamos.
Key drivers for precious metal producers in Q3/14
• Stable gold and silver prices
• Timing shipments for seasonal strength
• Marginally weaker currencies
• Stronger base metal prices
Companies that can demonstrate improving fundamentals, capital discipline and
consistent strategy should continue to attract favorable interest from investors.

Brookfield Canada Office Properties ("BOX") reported Q3/14 results that were,
on an underlying basis, slightly short of expectations. Thematically, unplanned
vacancies continue to suppress FFO. Despite competitive office dynamics, the
expected back-filling of space, rent spread capture and a levering of the balance
sheet (via BAE & BPCE) should allow BOX to produce above-average FFO/unit
growth through 2016. We reiterate our Sector Perform rating.

• Transitional vacancy/other factors continue to impact results – Q3/14 FFO/
unit of $0.41 was +14% from Q3/13’s $0.36, and $0.01 above our $0.40E.
NOI included $3.6MM (~$0.04/unit) in non-operating items. Thus underlying
results were ~$0.03/unit short. Thematically, BOX continues to be impacted by
unanticipated vacancies that arose in early 2014, while certain non-recoverable
operating costs also hit Q3/14.
• Mixed operating trends; a turn for the better not far off – Q3/14 same-property
NOI deteriorated 8.2%, which compared to a decline of 5.3% in Q2/14. With
Q3/14 leasing of 948,000 sf (238,000 sf of new leases + 710,000 sf of renewals) at
spreads that were a sizable +33% (Y1 new lease rate of $22.72/sf versus expiries
at $17.05/sf) we expect a less negative same-property NOI result in Q4/14,
and a return to organic growth commencing in Q1/15. Back-filling several highrent, unanticipated vacancies in Brookfield Place Toronto and Bay Adelaide West
remain a priority and a future (2015+) source of NOI and FFO growth.
• BPCE “forward purchase” – Within this note we devote a number of pages to
BOX’s Oct-14 purchase of Brookfield Place Calgary East (“BPCE”) from Brookfield
Property Partners LP (“BPY”). Principally via the use of latent balance sheet
capacity (43% debt to gross assets at Q3/14; ~50% pro-forma BPCE completion)
the deal could add $0.19 to FFO/unit (13% accretion) when stabilized (H2/17).

• Solid Q3/14 result. CNR delivered revenue growth of +16%Y/Y in Q3/14, which
we expect to be double the average rate of revenue growth for the peer group in
Q3/14. This strong top-line result reflects robust volumes (+13%Y/Y RTMs) and
steady yield (+2.6%Y/Y). The O/R was also very impressive at 58.8% coming in
~60bps ahead of our forecast and ~110bps better than Q3/13. As a result, EPS
increased +21%Y/Y to $1.04, in-line with our estimate ($1.04) and consensus
($1.05).
• Buyback increased with significant dividend hike expected to follow. In
conjunction with the release of Q3/14 results, CNR's Board announced a
meaningful increase to its share repurchase program with up to 28MM shares
(~3.9% of float) authorized for repurchase over the coming year. With $1.7B
initially earmarked for the buyback, the new NCIB represents an increase of more
than 20% over the prior program. We expect this announcement to be followed
by a 20% dividend increase in 2015.
• Reiterate Outperform. We believe that momentum will continue into 2015 and
we expect management to provide solid guidance with substantial room for
upside if market conditions warrant. The Company's strong earnings potential
combined with solid shareholder returns in the form of increasing share
repurchases and dividends is expected to sustain a higher multiple, in our view.
Accordingly, CNR remains our preferred stock in the railroad space and we
reiterate our Outperform rating on the shares.

Third quarter results missed expectations; however, a strong outlook for Q4/14

• Guidance unchanged; Fourth quarter trends are strong. Despite recent
commodity price volatility, CP reiterated the near-term and long-term financial
targets outlined at the Company's Investor Day earlier this month. Notably, CP
also maintained their crude guidance with ~40% of volumes locked into take-orpay agreements and ~300,000 carloads of terminal capacity coming on-line next
year. Furthermore, management indicated that CP is on track to deliver record
revenue in October and pointed to +4% core pricing growth next year based on
the outcomes of recent discussions. In this context, we remain confident in our
earnings outlook for CP despite Q3 coming in below expectations.
• Target and rating unchanged, but upside case is compelling. We are maintaining
our $222 price target and Sector Perform rating; however we point to our $286
upside target should top-line growth come in closer to management’s forecasts
and note the interesting share price upside under that scenario.

ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW: CLS reported another quarter in which EPS continued
to surprise despite revenue shortfalls. Sales came in below expectations at $1.42B
(Street at 1.46B), reflecting headwinds in communication segment (driven by
telecom softness), but EPS of 26c exceeded Street expectations of 24c, reflecting
better cost control, mix, and buyback benefits. Going forward, CLS is guiding Decqtr sales to be flat q/q at $1.425B (Street at $1.5B) and EPS at $0.24 (Street at
$0.26). We maintain our Sector Perform rating and $11 price target as we await for
tangible signs of revenue growth, which remain elusive.

• Attractive valuation entry point, solid FCF. UNS trades close to BV at 1.1x and
a low 8.8x P/E on our F15 EPS estimate, well below US peers and below UNS
own historical 1-3 yr avg range (Details). UNS is also trading at a low 11x our
F15 FCF estimate. We continue to expect improved results into F15 will drive a
positive multiple re-rating to UNS; we also expect UNS could be viewed as a takeout target given its commercial market share and its compelling valuation in a
consolidating automotive aftermarket industry. We maintained our Outperform
rating and would view any weakness off Q3 reporting as an attractive entry point.
• Adjusting Q3 growth down on tough comp YoY. We are revising our Q3 estimates
down to account for the strong comp performance in Q3 F13 including from
subsidiary FinishMaster, which benefited from special sales initiatives. We expect
revenue decline of 2% YoY including from weaker Canadian sales from CAD/
US FX translation (UNS reports in USD which is up ~10% YoY). We forecast an
EBITDA margin of 6.6% up 10bps YoY as UNS reshapes its US operations for higher
profitability. Our new Q3/14 EPS is US$0.71 vs. US$0.73 prior and below Street
at $0.75.

Bulking Up – RBC's Weekly Review

• What's Hot: Iron ore freight rates to China from Australia and Brazil both rose
by 14% today.
• What's Not: Australian coal prices declined following China's re-introduction of
import taxes.
• Our View: As of October 15 China is taxing coal imports, at 3% for met coal
and anthracite, 6% for thermal coal, and 5% for lignite. We expect this to result

in modest (perhaps $1–2/t) reductions in FOB prices. We do not expect similar
moves to be introduced to help iron ore miners; the cost to steelmakers would
offset a benefit to domestic miners.
China's GDP growth rate hit a five-year low of 7.3% YoY for July–September. The
prospect of an increase in government stimulus could lend support to iron ore.
Chinese iron ore and steel inventories declined.
Metallurgical coal: Premium prices declined this week, including LV FOB
Australia (-1.2%). A growing preference for cheaper, lower-quality coals among
steelmakers boosted second-tier prices in Asia.
Thermal coal: FOB Newcastle fell by 2.5%; Richards Bay and CIF ARA prices
increased by 2.0% and 0.1%, respectively. South African material was sold into
the European market as port congestion in India hindered buying, although an
uptick in demand ahead of India's Deepavali holiday provided support.
Iron ore: IODEX declined to $82.00/t (-1.8%). The prospect of mandated cuts to
sintering around Beijing ahead of an APEC meeting deterred buying of fines but
boosted the lump premium, up 20% this week.
Steel: Rebar prices increased slightly. HRC fell in North America and China but
rose in Europe.

Cdn Oilfield Services: Sifting through the rubble - Pressure
Pumpers
Matthew McKellar (Associate)
A look at risk/reward
• As commodities go, so will oilfield service stocks: Given the strong historical
correlation to commodities, and in particular oil currently, the stocks will remain
volatile until stability returns to the commodity complex.
• Past cycles suggest out-sized gains on a rebound: For pressure pumpers, the
stocks tend to rise and fall by greater than the broader Canadian OFS peer
group, which has certainly been the case this time around, driven in part by the
high fixed cost nature of the business versus other service lines. This provides
opportunity for patient investors looking to play a rebound in the group.
• Stocks implying 25%-40% downside to 2015 expectations: Using a range of
average to peak cycle EV/EBITDA multiples, gives implied downside for the
pumping stocks of 25%-40%. We would view this as fair given commodity driven
concerns for E&P spending in 2015, but towards the bearish side at this point.

Dealership Dynamics
Juliane Szeto (Associate)
• See FTT as compelling Buy on recent pull back. Among our dealership coverage,
we view Outperform rated Finning as most compelling for earnings growth
and stock upside. Last week we published a full report examining FTT earnings
correlations (historically low) with crude and copper, Chile's positive economic
outlook and sensitivity analysis to our estimates. Because of these points, our
expectation for FTT Canadian Action plan to improve EBIT margins, and the close
to 20% share pullback since early Sept, we believe investors should buy FTT.
• Our take into Q3: In line quarters for FTT, TIH, WJX, cautious on Ag dealers RME
and CVL. For Ag dealers RME and CVL our estimates are well below the Street
with -3% EPS growth for RME but -15% YoY for CVL on margin pressure. For longer
term investors, we do see current valuations as attractive for RME and CVL given
long term prospects. We maintain our Sector Perform rating on both CVL and
RME given near term headwinds for earnings relative to Street.
• Investor Focus for Q3 reporting season: FX and pricing, outlook for product
support given weaker commodities. We believe investors are first focused on
impact of softer commodity pricing and weaker CAD on 1) ability to pass through
pricing increases to CAD customers based on USD based equipment and parts
pricing and 2) any impact to product support given lower cash flow outlook for
mining customers of FTT, WJX, TIH.

• We have released revised earnings/cash flow estimates for our Canadian
integrated oil and independent coverage group, which reflects our updated
commodity price outlook, as published in our October 21 Energy Insights Report.
On average, we have trimmed our one-year price targets by 5% in connection
with a reduced WTI outlook. Our recommendations remain unchanged across
the board.
• We continue to favor producers with well-defined growth plans, above-average
execution capability, and solid balance sheets. With one-year potential returns
averaging 48% for our coverage group, our favorite stocks are Suncor Energy
(integrated oil), Canadian Natural Resources and Encana Corporation (E&P),
with Cenovus Energy, Husky Energy, Enerplus Corporation, Vermilion Energy
and Oryx Petroleum rounding out our Outperform roster. Despite attractive
one-year potential returns for Talisman and Penn West, their balance sheets
continue to give us pause.
• 3Q Preview – Sequentially Lower. The 3Q earnings parade is set to get underway
with both Cenovus and Husky slated to release their results on October 23. Our
earnings/cash flow estimates are generally below IBES consensus, with only COS,
Cenovus, Husky, Talisman and Penn West having released analyst surveys.
• We anticipate negative third-quarter sequential CFPS growth across most of
our coverage group, largely in connection with lower crude oil and natural gas
prices. The best-positioned producers in the third quarter possess sequential
production growth (Imperial Oil & Canadian Oil Sands) and/or rising oil &
liquids exposure (Encana).

RBC has revised its commodity price assumptions for Q4/14, 2015 and 2016.
• Our WTI estimates have dropped by 10% in 2015 and 5% in 2016. We highlight
that our Canadian heavy oil pricing assumption for 2015 has held up relatively
well due to a slightly lower CAD/US exchange rate. Our heavy oil pricing dropped
by 9% in 2015 and 5% in 2016, now sitting at C$82.59/bbl and C$80.34/bbl,
respectively.
• In our opinion, companies that are financially strong are those that we believe
are best able to manage debt loads and are well financed for 2015. These include
MEG, Baytex, Northern Blizzard, Athabasca and Gear. Despite Gear’s relatively
high draw on its credit facility, we expect the company to receive a material
increase to its credit facility in the New Year due to the company’s mid year asset
acquisition and our expectation for strong reserve additions in other core areas.
• Dividend paying companies that are able to maintain effective payout ratios at
or below 100% include Northern Blizzard and Twin Butte.
• Finally, we highlight that our long term commodity price assumptions remain
unchanged.

• Shipments decreased by 3% y/y – P&W shipments in September were down by
2.7% on a y/y basis (+3.7% m/m).
• P&W demand lower for all grades – Total P&W demand declined 3.4% on a y/
y basis (+4.2% m/m). Demand for UGW was down 6.1% y/y and CGW demand
was 1.4% lower. Groundwood markets have had to absorb ~10% annual declines
in NA newsprint demand.
• Overall inventories lower m/m – NA inventories decreased 5.7% m/m (-82K
tonnes) to 1,363K tonnes. We note that September inventories have declined in
all of the last ten years (average 75K tonne decrease).
• UFS op. rates constrained by growing imports (despite capacity reductions) –
While NA UFS demand is declining 3–4%/yr, industry op. rates averaged 91% in
2013, supported by producers having taken out ~495K tpy of capacity in 2012 and
1,053K tpy (9.5% of NA capacity) shut over Q413–Q114, from Boise International
11
Falls (113K tpy in October 2013), GP Crossett (93K tpy in November 2013),
Lincoln Paper (78K tpy in December 2013) and International Paper. IP closed its
Courtland, AL mill, removing 765K tpy of UFS capacity. IP shut one UFS machine
(~240K tpy) in November 2013, with the remaining 525K tpy of UFS capacity shut
in February 2014. RISI expects UFS op. rates to average 93% over 2014, 92% in
2015 and 90% in 2016. RISI assumes UFS demand declines 4.9% in 2014, 2.1% in
2015 and 3.1% in 2016.

Hamir Patel (Analyst)
• Shipments decreased by 10% compared to a year ago – NA shipments were
down 10.3% y/y and 5.1% lower m/m. NA demand decreased 11.1% y/y, an
acceleration on the 7.7% decline YTD. Commercial printing demand increased
4.0% y/y while demand from newspapers fell 15.3%.
• Exports decreased 9% y/y – Offshore shipments were 8.7% lower compared
to a year ago (-6.1% 9-Mo YTD). Offshore volumes represented 31% of total
shipments. While a wave of capacity closures in Europe in 2013 (~1MM tpy) and
a strong Euro helped NA producers win back share in export markets (+12% in
2013), the Russian capacity that was idle in H113 is running hard this year with
a weaker rouble to assist.
• Lower operating rates – The NA adjusted operating rate (prod-to-operating
capacity) of 88% (86% in Canada and 92% in the US) was down 400 bps from last
month. Production fell 12.3% m/m in the US and Canadian production was 8.3%
lower than the month prior.
• Inventories 6.4% lower m/m – Total mill stocks decreased in September by 19K
tonnes m/m, with stocks for export down 7K tonnes while stocks for domestic
customers were 12K tonnes lower.

Chart of the Week: Lower yields and positive seasonality tailwinds for gold
Tepid economic releases drive yields lower
• Gold prices have historically exhibited a strong inverse correlation to yields driven
predominantly by safe-haven demand (Exhibit 1). A lackluster mid-week retail
sales print (0.3% drop following a 0.6% gain in August) stemming from a broadbased decline in motor vehicles, gasoline (-0.8%) and building materials (-1.1%),
in conjunction with producer prices unexpectedly falling 0.1% lent credence to
the uneven-recovery theme and heightened belief amongst market participants
that a potential deferral of fed rate hikes to the back half of 2015 could occur (as
witnessed by the VIX which spiked to a near 2.5 year high). 10 year yields lowered
to 1.873% post the releases on Wednesday, before ameliorating modestly to the
2.18% mark to close out the week following a modest beat on housing starts and
initial jobless claims.
• Whilst inflation expectations over a 10-year horizon have ticked lower from
2.23% at the beginning of August to 1.93%, a potential delay in rate hikes could
serve to boost the buy-case for gold in the near-term given the lower opportunity
cost incurred in holding the asset. Furthermore, statements by the President
of the Federal Reserve Bank of St Louis, James Bullard, regarding considering a
continuation of the bond-buying program could accentuate investor appetite for
gold.

Steel: September global output at 134.4mt, daily rate improves
Ioannis Masvoulas, CFA (Associate)
• The World Steel Association (WSA) announced September 2014 global steel
output at 134.4mt, down 0.6% from 135.2mt in August. However, on a daily
production rate basis, September steel output was up 2.8% at 4.48mt/day.
• Global capacity utilisation stood at 76.1% in September 2014, up from 74.2% in
August 2014.
• Chinese production came in at 67.5mt in September 2014, or 2.25mt/day on a
daily rate basis. The daily production rate was up 1.3% mom and flat yoy.
• European production came in at 17.2mt or 0.57mt/day in September 2014. The
daily production rate was up 17% sequentially, in line with the typical recovery
post the weak summer activity. The key countries of Germany (0.12mt/d), Italy
(0.07mt/d), France (0.05mt/d) and Spain (0.04mt/d) accounted for 48% of total
European output.

• Uranium Participation Corp. (UPC) traded down 1.2% over the past week to close
at C$4.96 per share (vs. S&P/TSX +0.8%).
• We estimate UPC is discounting a uranium price of $33.19/lb, a 6.9% discount to
spot. Last week we estimated that UPC discounted a uranium price of $33.58/lb,
a 5.8% discount to the then-prevailing spot price.

Dissemination of research and short-term trade ideas
RBC Capital Markets endeavours to make all reasonable efforts to provide research simultaneously to all eligible clients, having
regard to local time zones in overseas jurisdictions. Subject to any applicable regulatory considerations, "eligible clients" may
include RBC Capital Markets institutional clients globally, the retail divisions of RBC Dominion Securities Inc. and RBC Capital
Markets LLC, and affiliates. RBC Capital Markets' equity research is posted to our proprietary websites to ensure eligible clients
receive coverage initiations and changes in rating, targets and opinions in a timely manner. Additional distribution may be done
15
by the sales personnel via email, fax or regular mail. Clients may also receive our research via third party vendors. Please contact
your investment advisor or institutional salesperson for more information regarding RBC Capital Markets research. RBC Capital
Markets also provides eligible clients with access to SPARC on its proprietary INSIGHT website. SPARC contains market color and
commentary, and may also contain Short-Term Trade Ideas regarding the securities of subject companies discussed in this or
other research reports. SPARC may be accessed via the following hyperlink: https://www.rbcinsight.com. A Short-Term Trade Idea
reflects the research analyst's directional view regarding the price of the security of a subject company in the coming days or weeks,
based on market and trading events. A Short-Term Trade Idea may differ from the price targets and/or recommendations in our
published research reports reflecting the research analyst's views of the longer-term (one year) prospects of the subject company,
as a result of the differing time horizons, methodologies and/or other factors. Thus, it is possible that the security of a subject
company that is considered a long-term 'Sector Perform' or even an 'Underperform' might be a short-term buying opportunity
as a result of temporary selling pressure in the market; conversely, the security of a subject company that is rated a long-term
'Outperform' could be considered susceptible to a short-term downward price correction. Short-Term Trade Ideas are not ratings,
nor are they part of any ratings system, and RBC Capital Markets generally does not intend, nor undertakes any obligation, to
maintain or update Short-Term Trade Ideas. Short-Term Trade Ideas discussed in SPARC may not be suitable for all investors and
have not been tailored to individual investor circumstances and objectives, and investors should make their own independent
decisions regarding any Short-Term Trade Ideas discussed therein.
