Confused about what is going on here
Ok, I get that Brookfield is a secured creditor. However, the company is in CCAA. I am probably missing something, but doesn't there have to be a Plan of Compromise voted on by the debt holders or at least a lifting of CCAA before they can just sell off the assets to Brookfield?
I'm surprised that the committee of the senior noteholders isn't opposing the Brookfield transaction, considering that they get nothing if it goes through. I know they are probably trying to keep things non-adversarial so that have a better chance of selling an alternative deal to Brookfield, but I would have expected a bit more assertiveness given the money involved.

Upper management will laugh all the way to the bank. Anderson's employment contract calls for $1.2m if the company is sold or taken over.
