Markrhead, I own PMT-UN.TO (along with EEEA). PMT's dividend is currently around 15.25%. In January of '04, the Alberta government shut down a number of their gas wells as a conservation action to protect underlying bitumen. The company has made a comeback, but has carried a somewhat higher yield since. A few weeks ago, the government agreed to some partial compensation, which resulted in an increase of a couple a cents/month, from .20 to .22. The stock had been hot all the way to ex-dividend, but has given back about .40 since. I expect the second half of the month will regain some momentum as 15% is pretty high.
I might also mention that Yahoo often neglects to post the news of these companies. Stockhouse.com is a good source for their PR's.
