Dividend stocks can be a great way to grow your portfolio, but sometimes finding the best investments means looking beyond U.S. borders. Here, I'll look at four of the best dividend stocks from Canada to give investors a look at what opportunities lie north of the border. Canada is a natural-resource-rich country, and it needs a way to move these resources to where they can be best used. Fulfilling much of this need is Canadian Pacific Railway, which has existed since the 19th century and constructed Canada's first transcontinental railroad.
For those looking for a diversified bank with an international footprint, Toronto Dominion Bank is definitely worth a look. Not only is TD a major bank in Canada, but it also has major U.S. operations, with the slogan "America's Most Convenient Bank." Canada has two major airlines: WestJet Airlines and Air Canada. Air Canada has undergone a massive recovery, and I remain bullish on its shares. The CEO of Fairfax Financial Holdings , Prem Watsa, is often referred to as the Warren Buffett of Canada.
