10 Ultra High Yield Canadian Monthly Dividend Stocks

Investors in the US should not overlook Canadian stocks, many of which have higher dividend yields than their U.S.-based counterparts.

Note: Canada imposes a 15% dividend withholding tax on U.S. investors. In many cases, investing in Canadian stocks through a U.S. retirement account waives the dividend withholding tax from Canada, but check with your tax preparer or accountant for more on this issue.

With the average S&P 500 yield hovering around 1.2%, investors can generate much more income with high-yield stocks.

Screening for monthly dividend stocks that also have high dividend yields makes for an appealing combination.

This article will list the 10 highest-yielding Canadian monthly dividend stocks.

The following 10 Canadian monthly dividend stocks have high dividend yields above 5%. Stocks are listed by their dividend yields, from lowest to highest.

The list excludes oil and gas royalty trust, which have extreme fluctuations in their dividend payouts from one quarter to the next due to the underlying volatility of commodity prices.

High-Yield Canadian Monthly Dividend Stock #10: Slate Grocery REIT (SRRTF)

Slate Grocery REIT is a Toronto-based, yet U.S.-focused real estate investment trust focused on grocery-anchored retail centers. It owns 115 properties, totaling 15.2 million square feet and valued at $2.4 billion on a proportionate basis.

The portfolio remains firmly rooted in necessity-based retail, with roughly 69% of GLA leased to essential-service tenants, supported by durable long-term demand drivers.

Its top tenants include Kroger, Walmart, and Ahold Delhaize, and the REIT continues to maintain a strong anchor occupancy rate of 99.7%.

On February 10th, 2026, Slate Grocery REIT posted its Q4 and year-end 2025 results for the period ending December 31st, 2025. Total revenue increased 2.9% year-over-year to $54.6 million, compared to $53.1 million in Q4 2024.

The growth was driven by strong leasing volumes and double-digit rental spreads, alongside higher percentage rent and recoveries, underscoring the continued strength of grocery-anchored retail fundamentals.

As in prior quarters, profitability was impacted by elevated interest and finance costs, reflecting the higher rate environment.

FFO was $14.9 million, or $0.25 per unit, compared to $15.1 million, or $0.25 per unit last year.

Leasing momentum was robust, with 680,410 square feet completed during the quarter and portfolio occupancy improving slightly to 94.4%, driven by renewal spreads of 14.0% and strong new leasing spreads.

High-Yield Canadian Monthly Dividend Stock #9: BTB Real Estate Investment Trust (BTBIF)

BTB Real Estate Investment Trust is a Canadian REIT that owns, operates, and actively manages a portfolio of industrial, suburban office, and necessity-based retail properties, with a strong concentration in Québec and Eastern Ontario and a growing presence in Western Canada.

The REIT generated $90.4 million in revenues last year.

On February 24th, 2026, BTB REIT reported its Q4 and full-year results for the period ended December 31st, 2025, with
revenue from real estate properties of $23.4 million, down 1% year over year, primarily due to industrial vacancies in
Edmonton and Laval. Net operating income decreased about 4.4% year over year to $13.2 million, though full-year cash
same-property NOI rose 2%, reflecting core portfolio resilience and the successful re-leasing of 742,000 square feet.

Portfolio occupancy was 91.3%, lower year-over-year following planned and forced industrial tenant departures, but driven by robust annual renewal rent growth of 10.6%.

FFO per unit for the quarter was $0.070, reflecting a slight fall from last year. For the full year, BTB REIT posted FFO per share of $0.29.

High-Yield Canadian Monthly Dividend Stock #8: Atrium Mortgage Investment Corp. (AMIVF)

Atrium Mortgage Investment Corporation was founded in 2001 and was listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange in 2012.

AMIVF provides different types of mortgage loans to customers, including residential mortgages, land and development financing, commercial term and bridge financing services, and construction and mezzanine financing.

The company’s loans range from 300,000 to 30 million CAD and are backed by real estate in major Canadian urban centers.

On February 26th, AMIVF shared its financial results for the fourth quarter ended December 31st, 2025. The company’s revenue dropped by 13.3% year-over-year to 21 million CAD in the quarter.

Adjusting for modest foreign currency translation tailwinds, revenue would have declined by 13% over the year-ago period to $15.3 million during the quarter.

That was the result of a significant drop in the weighted average interest rate of the portfolio to around 9% for the quarter (down about 100 basis points versus Q4 2024), which stemmed from rate cuts from the Bank of Canada.

AMIVF’s diluted EPS decreased by 3.8% year-over-year to 0.25 CAD in the quarter.

High-Yield Canadian Monthly Dividend Stock #7: Firm Capital Mortgage Investment (FCMGF)

Firm Capital Mortgage Investment Corporation is a Toronto-based, non-bank mortgage lender. It operates as a mortgage investment corporation (MIC) under the Canadian Income Tax Act.

Through its affiliated mortgage banker Firm Capital Corporation, it originates, funds, purchases, and services a diversified portfolio of short-term residential and commercial real estate loans across Canada, including bridge and term mortgages, construction financing, mezzanine loans, and selected equity or participating debt structure.

On November 4th, 2025, Firm Capital Mortgage Investment Corporation reported its Q3 results. Total revenue was $12.0 million, down about 12% year-over-year, as lower special income, a reduced average portfolio balance, and a slight decline in portfolio yield offset stable fee income.

Interest revenue again dominated results, with more than 90% of income generated from Firm’s short-term mortgage portfolio. The investment portfolio stood at $445.3 million, 93% composed of first mortgages, with a weighted-average rate of 9.61%.

Net income grew 1% to $6.46 million, and EPS was $0.18, essentially unchanged from the prior year as lower revenue was balanced by reduced interest expenses and a smaller fair-value and credit-loss provision.

Management reiterated its conservative underwriting approach and expects steady earnings through the rest of 2025, with roughly one-third of the loan portfolio set to mature by year-end.

High-Yield Canadian Monthly Dividend Stock #6: SIR Royalty Income Fund (SIRZF)

SIR Royalty Income Fund is a Canadian entity which collects and distributes a dividend stream based on royalties earned from the Jack Astor’s, Scaddabush, Reds Square One, and Loose Moose Tap & Grill restaurant brands.

SIR Royalty has claims on the royalties of 52 restaurants locations as of Jan. 1st, 2026. 45 of these restaurants are found within the province of Ontario; the company is heavily reliant on the Greater Toronto Metro area for its business.

The majority of the company’s total locations are for Jack Astor’s, which is a bar and grill concept. Scaddabush, an Italian chain, is the other significant driver of SIR’s revenues.

On March 12th, 2026, the royalty fund reported its Q4 results. Same store sales surged 8% and pooled revenues increased by 17%.

This was far better than expected. Management attributed the strong results in significant part to a long playoff run and World Series appearance by the Toronto Blue Jays baseball team, which drove more in-store customer activity in the company’s key Toronto market.

High-Yield Canadian Monthly Dividend Stock #4: Nexus Industrial REIT (EFRTF)

As of the end of last year, the REIT owned 89 properties comprising 12.4 million square feet of gross leasable area, with 99% of net operating income generated from industrial assets following the completion of its transition to a pure-play industrial entity.

The REIT generated $126 million in revenue last year.

On March 6th, 2026, Nexus Industrial REIT posted its Q4 and full-year results. Quarterly real estate revenue was about $32.8 million, with gains from completed developments and Montreal industrial acquisitions offsetting the effect of legacy asset sales.

Operating fundamentals remained strong, with industrial occupancy at 96% and an average rent spread of 60% on full-year renewals.

Normalized FFO per unit was $0.14, slightly above the prior year as organic growth began to outweigh dilution from the Trust’s shift to a pure-play industrial portfolio.

High-Yield Canadian Monthly Dividend Stock #3: True North Commercial REIT (TUERF)

True North Commercial REIT is a Canadian office REIT that owns and operates a portfolio of single-tenant and select multi-tenant office properties across five provinces.

As of December 31st, 2025, the Trust owned 35 office properties totaling 3.3 million square feet, with 90% occupancy and a weighted average lease term of 4.3 years.

Roughly 75% of revenue is generated from government and credit-rated tenants, providing highly contractual and defensive cash flow despite structural challenges in the office sector.

The portfolio is concentrated in Ontario (notably the GTA and Ottawa), with additional exposure to Alberta, Atlantic Canada, and British Columbia. The REIT generated $94.8 million in rental revenue last year.

On March 17th, 2026, True North Commercial REIT reported Q4 and full-year results. Quarterly revenue from real estate properties rose 27% year over year to about $29.4 million, mainly due to a $9.1 million early termination payment from an Ottawa tenant, which helped offset the impact of strategic asset sales.

Net operating income increased to $18.4 million, driven by this one-time payment and contractual rent steps, though same-property weakness in Alberta and British Columbia continued to weigh on results.

Portfolio occupancy, excluding assets held for sale, finished the year at 90% with a 4.3-year weighted average lease term, backed by a tenant base that is 75% government or credit-rated. Full-year 2025 FFO per share was $2.08.

High-Yield Canadian Monthly Dividend Stock #2: Bridgemarq Real Estate Services (BREUF)

Bridgemarq Real Estate Services is a leading Canadian real estate services company that provides branding, technology, and support to real estate brokers and over 21,000 realtors across Canada.

Its portfolio includes nationally recognized brands such as Royal LePage, Via Capitale, Proprio Direct, and Johnston & Daniel.

The company earns revenue primarily from fixed and variable franchise fees, generating cash flow stability that is less sensitive to fluctuations in the housing market.

On March 13th, 2026, Bridgemarq Real Estate Services posted its Q4 and full-year results. Total revenue for the quarter came in at $69.6 million, down from $71.7 million in Q4 2024, reflecting a 16% year-over-year contraction in the Canadian residential market and lower transaction volumes in Toronto and Vancouver.

Bridgemarq recorded a quarterly net income of $0.38 per share, a significant turnaround from the loss of $0.68 a year earlier, primarily driven by a non-cash gain on the valuation of exchangeable units.

Adjusted EPS for the quarter was a loss of $0.05, down from a loss of $0.02 last year, as higher commission and operating expenses and increased income tax costs outweighed the positive impact of strategic fee increases and a 2% growth in the agent network.

For the full year, Bridgemarq generated net earnings of $0.32 per share, supported by a resilient network of 21,409 realtors.

High-Yield Canadian Monthly Dividend Stock #1: Timbercreek Financial Corp. (TBCRF)

Timbercreek Financial is a Canadian non-bank lender specializing in shorter-duration, structured financing solutions for commercial real estate investors.

The company provides primarily first-mortgage loans for income-producing properties, including multi-residential, retail, industrial, and office assets. Its loans are typically used for acquisition, redevelopment, or transitional financing, and are often repaid through term financing or asset sales.

The decline primarily reflected lower portfolio yields and reduced lender fees in a lower interest rate environment, partly offset by growth in the average mortgage investment portfolio.

Net investment income was $18.8 million, compared to $20.4 million in the prior year period. Net income for the quarter was a loss of $0.8 million, or $0.01 per share, compared to net income of $1.8 million, or $0.02 per share, in Q4 2024.

Final Thoughts

Monthly dividend stocks could be more appealing to income investors than quarterly or semi-annual dividend stocks. This is because monthly dividend stocks make 12 dividend payments per year, instead of the usual 4 or 2.

Furthermore, monthly dividend stocks with high yields above 5% are even more attractive for income investors.

The 10 stocks on this list have not been vetted for dividend safety, meaning each investor should understand the unique risk factors of each company.

That said, these 10 Canadian dividend stocks make monthly payments to shareholders, and all have high dividend yields.
