That year we received overwhelming support, with 97.05% of the votes cast in favour of our approach to executive compensation. Last year, however, that support fell to 60.86%. Last year’s vote indicated that certain changes were necessary. As committee chair, I want to assure our unitholders that we have listened and are making changes to regain and maintain your support. And, as always, we are committed to regularly reviewing Chemtrade’s compensation policies and program and our governance regime as we strive to continue to improve.
So the question is, do the unitholders now fully support the policy changes for the Executive Compensation? Well this year's results show that 81.73% of votes cast support the changes. That is still a far cry from 97.05%!
But what is really interesting are the actual numbers. In 2019, there were 27,284,521 votes cast supporting the Executive Compensation program while this year there were only 23,400,000 votes cast supporting the Executive Compensation program!
Looks to me like Chemtrade still has room for improvement on this issue!

kherson, it looks to me like insiders dumped 3 million shares. no ordinary retail investors would support giving the executive compensation packages. how many retail investors take the time to read the info package and vote? the info packages are written by communication pros and are very biased towards the executives.
Leo my friend, my post has nothing to do with Insiders. The voting results are from the last 3 year's AGMs and are reflective of all the unitholders who did vote!

kherson: no you didn't mention insiders, i did.
100 million units outstanding
26% of units controlled by funds and institutions - approx 26 million units
23 million votes for the executive compensation.
i'm pretty sure that almost no retail investors knowingly voted in favor of the executive compensation package.
Very good point Leo!
Thanks,
