The Globe and Mail reports in its Saturday, Feb. 21, edition that investing in Canadian dividend stocks has been a great way to build wealth. The Globe's guest columnist Norman Rothery writes that The Globe's Dividend All-Stars portfolio provides a guide to the largest 200 on the Toronto Stock Exchange. The portfolio attempts to identify companies with the best combination of income, value and stability. The Globe gives Cogeco Communications a five-star rating. Its price-to-earnings ratio stands at 8.08. Cogeco Communications is a Canadian telecommunications company based in Montreal that operates domestically and in 13 U.S. states. It pays a 5.8-per-cent dividend yield and trades at eight times both trailing earnings and forward 12-month earnings estimates. Cogeco Communications boosted its quarterly dividend-per-share by 7 per cent over the past year and by an average of 9.1 per cent annually over the past five years. The Globe reported on Oct. 11, 2024, Oct. 10, 2025, Nov. 4, 2025, Jan. 13, 2026, and Jan. 16, 2026, that Desjardins Securities analyst Jerome Dubreuil had reaffirmed his "hold" recommendation for Cogeco Communications, which was then going for $69.30, $64.52, $64.45, $67.31 and $73.17.
