RE:RE:RE:RE:Careful What You Wish For......Remember:
The % of "Yes" votes needed to approve the BTO offer is based on the number of votes actually cast, not a % of total number of shares outstanding. If you don't vote, you don't exist as far as the vote totals go - just like voting in a federal or provincial government election.
You know who usually doesn't vote? Average Joe retail shareholders and short-term traders.
You know who does vote? Large shareholders, Board and Management members, and institutional investors.
Do you really think the BOD isn't sure whether the largest shareholders are in favour of the BTO deal....?
