Canadian Dividend Growth Portfolio

[cannew]

Here's a Canadian DG portfolio ( I own 5 of the 6 banks and all the rest)
Company and Current Yield:
BMO 4.14%
BNS 4.18%
CM 4.49%
NA 4.17%
RY 3.91%
TD 3.68%
BCE 4.86%
Telus 4.04%
Corus 6.39%
Shaw 4.4%
FTS 3.50%
EMA 3.86%
ENB 3.01%
TRP 3.81%
D.UN 8.33%
THI 3.27%

I've owned most of these for years, reinvesting the dividends and added to the positions. The top stock would be ENB but by holding the group one will do extremely well over time.

Why does D.UN have over 8% yield?
What is so special (risky) about it?

I own BCE from the list.

I've also been eyeing RY for a long time now. Haven't pulled the trigger but I am STILL missing a financial sector company from my portfolio and RY would definitely fill that place nicely. Will have to go through the latest quarterly report next week and maybe I can make up my mind then. PE of 12.55 does look attractive...

D.UN is a REIT. They own 185 properties with over 94% long-term occupancy.
