Enbridge stock

Let me start with Enbridge (TSX: ENB), a Canadian energy giant that mainly focuses on oil and gas transportation through pipelines. This Calgary-based company has operations across North America and is known for its reliable dividends. After rallying by 19% over the last year, ENB stock currently trades at $75.29 per share with a market cap of $164 billion. At this market price, it offers a dividend yield of 5.2% with quarterly payouts.

In 2025, Enbridge’s adjusted earnings climbed 9% YoY (year over year) to $6.6 billion, while its adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) rose 7% to $20 billion. Encouraged by these strong results, the company now expects an adjusted EBITDA of between $20.2 billion and $20.8 billion in 2026. ENB also increased its quarterly dividend by 3% to $0.97 per share.

In addition to strong fundamentals, Enbridge is investing in its oil export and renewable energy sectors. These long-term initiatives could accelerate its financial growth trends further, making this stock a great pick for long-term investors.

Canadian Natural Resources stock

Next up is Canadian Natural Resources (TSX: CNQ), one of the largest energy producers in Canada with operations across Western Canada, the U.K. North Sea, and Offshore Africa. This Calgary-based company mainly focuses on crude oil and natural gas production through its mining and upgrading segment.

After rallying by 53% over the last year, CNQ stock currently trades at $68 per share with a market cap of $142.2 billion. At this market price, it offers a quarterly dividend with an annualized yield of 3.7%.

In its latest earnings report, Canadian Natural posted record production and strong financial growth trends for the year ended December 2025. The company’s adjusted net earnings jumped to $7.4 billion, while adjusted funds flow hit $15.5 billion. These gains came from a combination of organic growth and accretive acquisitions.

Canadian Natural recently also increased its production guidance for 2026, which is expected to be backed by improved performance and recent acquisitions. With a strong balance sheet, the company is investing heavily in low-decline assets with a focus on thermal in situ production and natural gas. These initiatives are expected to drive long-term growth and make this stock even more attractive for investors looking beyond short-term gains.

Baytex Energy stock

Rounding out my list of top stocks to double up right now is Baytex Energy (TSX: BTE), a Calgary-based energy firm with operations in the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin. This company mainly focuses on oil and natural gas production through its light oil and heavy oil assets.
