Conflict between Laurentian and National
This article appeared in "La Presse" on June 5, 2021. Laurentian alleges that National enticed seven key emplyees from one of Laurentian branches. All of these employees operated in the investment sector. https://www.lapresse.ca/affaires/2021-06-05/courtage-en-valeurs-mobilieres/bisbille-entre-la-laurentienne-et-la-nationale.php
There are two ways to look at this. One is that Laurentian is vulnerable to raids from its competitors. The other is that Laurentian has something that its competitors find worthwhile. Now that Laurentian's emplyees are no longer represented by a union, LB is a conceivable target of a takeover. If Its competitors want what Laurention possesses, they may be tempted to make a bid for it.

It's one thing to move to what you think is a better opportunity. It's quite another if you take proprietary information with you to a job at the competition.
