How I'd Invest $100,000 in Canadian Dividend Stocks

Written by Demetris Afxentiou at The Motley Fool Canada Investing in the right Canadian dividend stocks can make a huge difference over a long period of time. Fortunately, the market gives us plenty of opportunities and options to consider when investing. Here's a look at some of the superb Canadian dividend stocks I would consider investing in given a $100,000 portfolio. You can't go wrong with this bank The first option on this Canadian dividend stocks wish list is Bank of Nova Scotia (TSX:BNS). Scotiabank isn't the largest of the Canadian big banks, but it is the most international bank in Canada. That international presence provides stellar growth for Scotiabank, which in turn allows it to invest in additional growth opportunities and pay out a very handsome quarterly dividend. As of the time of writing, Scotiabank's dividend works out to an appetizing 5.9% yield. This means that if we were to invest $35,000 of that initial $100,000, investors would generate an annual income of nearly $2,000. Even better, the bank has an established cadence of providing annual increases to that dividend going back several years. This means that prospective investors who aren't ready to draw on that income yet can choose to reinvest it, allowing any potential future income to continue growing. Invest in a defensive titan Apart from Canada's big bank stocks, some other segments of the market can offer growth and income. One such area is telecom stocks, and in particular, Telus (TSX:T). Telus offers investors a suite of subscriber-based services. Currently, that includes wireline, wireless, TV and internet services to customers across the country. Additionally, Telus boasts a growing (and profitable) digital services segment. That business provides digital solutions to niche market segments such as healthcare and agriculture. Collectively, both segments provide a reliable revenue stream for Telus, which in turn allows the company to invest in growth and pay one of the best dividends on the market. As of the time of writing, that dividend works out to a very tasty 7.5%. Prospective investors should also note that Telus has provided annual or better increases to that dividend going back well over a decade. From our $100,000 portfolio, investing $30,000 into Telus will provide a recurring revenue stream that is both defensive and growing. This fact alone makes Telus one of the Canadian Dividend stocks your portfolio needs. There's more to this stock than oil pipelines You can't mention great Canadian dividend stocks without including Enbridge (TSX:ENB). The energy infrastructure titan offers investors a very tasty dividend and multiple, reliable, growing business segments. Those business units include Enbridge's lucrative pipeline business, renewable energy operation, and natural gas utility. All three generate reliable, growing revenue that allows Enbridge to invest in growth and pay out a very handsome dividend. More importantly, all three of those segments are highly defensive, making the stock an ideal option for any bout of market volatility. As of the time of writing, Enbridge offers a tasty 5.8% yield, making it one of the better-paying options on the market. Prospective investors should also note that Enbridge has provided annual increases to that dividend going back three decades without fail. The company also plans to continue that tradition. Final thoughts on the Canadian Dividend stocks you need Even the trio of stellar Canadian dividend stocks mentioned above are not immune to risk. They do, however, boast solid growth, reliable revenue streams and most importantly, very juicy dividends. So then, how did our $100,000 investment portfolio pan out? Company Recent Price Total Invested No. of Shares Dividend Total Payout Frequency Bank of Nova Scotia $77.88 $35,000 449 $4.40 $1975.60 Quarterly Telus $22.25 $30,000 1,348 $1.67 $2251.16 Quarterly Enbridge $65.13 $35,000 537 $3.77 $2024.49 Quarterly The three stocks mentioned above can provide an income of over $6,200 annually, while also seeing annual bumps through increases. Keep in mind that prospective investors who are not yet at that $100,000 level or are not ready to draw on that income can instead opt to reinvest those dividends. This will allow any eventual income to continue growing until needed. In my opinion, one or all of the above should be core holdings in any well-diversified portfolio. Buy them, hold them, and watch your income grow. The post How I'd Invest $100,000 in Canadian Dividend Stocks appeared first on The Motley Fool Canada.

The Canadian Stock I'm Buying Now (It's a Steal!)

Written by Christopher Liew, CFA at The Motley Fool Canada TSX's communications services sector was a laggard last year, but investors' interest has returned in 2025. The turnaround of the three dominant 5G stocks lifted the sector, contributing to its 7.2%-plus year-to-date gain (seventh-best out of 11 primary sectors). However, if you want exposure to this vital sector, Rogers Communications (TSX:RCI.B) is a screaming buy, not BCE or TELUS. A resurgence is on the horizon following the positive financial performance of Canada's third-largest telco in Q2 2025. The current share price of $45.39 (+5.4% year-to-date) is a steal in light of the visible growth potential. You can also partake in the lucrative 4.3% dividend. This large-cap stock has consistently paid dividends since 2000. Financial performance Tony Staffieri, President and CEO of Rogers, said the $25.3 billion company reported growth in Wireless, Cable, and Media. In the three months ending June 30, 2025, total revenue increased 2% to $5.2 billion compared to Q2 2025. While net income declined 62% year-over-year to $148 million, free cash flow (FCF) rose 39% to $929 million from a year ago. 'Combined with our team's strong execution, we took meaningful steps to unlock value for shareholders by accelerating the deleveraging of our balance sheet and making our transformational investment in our world-class sports assets,' added Staffieri. Management estimates the value of its sports and media assets to be over $15 billion. Leadership in Canadian sports On July 2, 2025, Rogers Communications officially became the majority owner (75%) of Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment (MLSE). It acquired BCE's 37.5% ownership stake in MLSE for $4.7 billion. The deal solidified Rogers' leadership position in Canadian sports, with a portfolio that includes the Toronto Blue Jays, Rogers Centre, and Sportsnet. Staffieri said, 'MLSE is a valuable and appreciating asset, and this investment positions us to unlock more value for Rogers shareholders. We're building something that lasts – on the ice, on the court, on the field, and across the country.' Its Executive Chairman, Edward Rogers, added, 'We're passionate about winning and we're committed to bringing more championships to fans in Canada.' ​ ​ First-in-Canada On June 3, 2025, Rogers Communications announced the initial deployment of the Ericsson 5G Advanced technology on its national network. According to Mark Kennedy, Chief Technology Officer of Rogers, 5G Advanced will help unlock the full potential of 5G for businesses and consumers. 'We continue to invest in Canada's largest 5G network and are proud to be the first in Canada to bring 5G Advanced technology to our customers,' Kennedy added. Ericsson has been a partner in network technologies since 1985, and Rogers has invested over $40 billion in its network over the last decade. The partners believe that a new era of 5G enhancements for enterprises and consumers has begun. Meanwhile, Rogers has dramatically enhanced the internet service in the Southern Gulf Islands. On June 12, 2025, the telco giant invested $10 million in under-sea fibre lines and infrastructure to bring faster speeds to the communities. Growth leader Rogers Communications is committed to further improving operational execution and making well-timed investments to grow its core businesses and deliver increased shareholder value. Thus far, the company is taking meaningful steps to achieve its ultimate objective of becoming the growth leader in a highly competitive industry.
