Updated list of Canadian dividend payers and what kind of distribution they pay

For a #dividend #investor, using non-registered accounts, how the dividends get #taxed is important. I had previously compiled, and just brought up to date, a list of all publicly-traded #Canadian dividend payers. I painstakingly found what kind of #distributions the 500+ companies pay. The list is available here. I also provide the location you should check prior to buying the stock to confirm the #taxation on the distributions. If you invest in Canadian dividend payers in a non-registered account, find your companies in this list.

Find your combined provincial and federal tax table on taxtips.ca, but you can see below there is a significant difference in taxes for Canadian Eligible Dividends, Capital Gains, and everything else. This is why I compiled the list, and hope it is useful.
