RE:READ THIS AND YOU WILL GET YOUR ANSWER AS TO WHAT SU WILL DOGood article but I think the lawyer (Davis) stating they can squeeze the minority shareholders out is not looking at what COS actually does. Essentially COS has what --33 employees. So it sells its share of oil produced at Syncrude, pays for its share of operating and capital expenses, borrows moneys when necessary, pays dividends, pays back loans and thats it. Imperial operates Syncrude under contract and takes care of all the operations at Syncrude. So what can Suncor do if it controls the board?? Reduce expenses in COS which would benefit all shareholders? Try and make Syncrude more efficient which again benefits all owners of Syncrude and minority COS shareholders. The only way they could get cash out of COS without a lawsuit would be to declare a dividend which would apply to all shareholders. They need 90% of shares to squeeze out the remaining shareholders and that should have been stated in the article.
