The lucky Cannacord buyer yesterday has several million more shares to vote with at the upcoming special meeting. Since yesterday was the date of record for voting he/she just got a bunch of inexpensive voting shares. I realize for mere mortals the settlement date comes into play and you need to buy a few days before.....but....if I'm not mistaken you can file a provision to show you were a shareholder of record on the date of record. There is a legal term for this and it escapes me......anyone remember?
What fortuitous timing that all the bad news came out yesterday.......but, I'm sure that was just a coincidence;-)
