Tom C. If you're willing to go for with CEG with its 3.1% yield, you might consider MDU with its similar yield (3.2%).

Company has an oil and gas exploratory arm, active in possibly prolific oil sands areas. Thus, a possible capital gain opportunity as well. So I am betting anyway.

MDU website: "Dividend increased in November 2009, marking the 19th consecutive year of dividend increases."
I looked quickly this subjectmark: fwiw, did not see CEG, NST mentioned as Aristocrat or Achiever.
