You know... a good way to take over this company would be to approach Aeroplan to ensure that they would continue to do business with you... then buy 50+% of the stock.  You might also want to approach some other major creditors to make sure they'd leave behind some assets you'd need.   Someone like me, a startup-to-enterprise IT type guy, could probably find ways to automate ...more
