RE:RE:The question is what happens.......and COVID gave Gagnon a tool that enables his incompetence, allowing him to avoid accountability.
Per the Globe and Mail article: "Securities regulators sit idle as companies use virtual meetings to silence shareholders" Globe Article Excerpt: A lack of regulation concerning how virtual shareholder meetings are run has created a deep deficit in the ability to enforce rules of order and process at a basic level. The current format of virtual meetings impedes shareholder participation in the affairs of Canadian public companies. The critical dialogue between issuers and investors that makes companies better is being stifled.
Canadian securities regulators can fix this, but they need to act decisively. Methinks both AEZS shareholders and, more importantly, US & Canadian regulators should be made aware of Gagnon's playbook.
