RE: merger ?

With M&A pro Jimmy Pattison on the board I'm betting this has been a lively discussion frequently. Mr. Pattison likes to see money working so they could be hot on the acquisiton trail. I believe they have had a past (if not ongoing) relationship with Ainsworth Lumber. I wonder if this could be a possible target? I sat next to a lady on a flight home from Toronto several year ago. She was a CFP VP on a trade mission to sell "fibre" to the automotive industry. She said that they consider themselves dealers in fibre rather than strictly dealers in lumber. So it is possible that they could be looking beyond the world of lumber. Anyway, nice article.
