Update - Corporate Governance Proposals

Hello,

BTB REIT wrote to me via its counsel a letter dated April 25, 2024 indicating in a nutshell that they are refusing to present any of my proposals.

In my view, this letter is clearly disrespectful to me personally, the proposals and all non-insider BTB REIT unitholders at large.

Besides that this letter is inexplicably marked 'Private and Confidential' and I will heed their wishes, however my response, dated today, is a public document that you can find here:

My personal address has been redacted off, along with the identity of BTB REIT's counsel. The rest is as sent to each individual BTB REIT trustee late this afternoon.

Thanks for the support for all, and happy to debate on your thoughts on the letter.

I want to clarify that the letter I received on April 25th, 2024 rejecting my proposals in one sentence, is from an unclear sender. I said 'BTB REIT wrote' to me previously, however I jumped the gun: the lawyers who wrote me the letter did not actually indicate WHO they represent. Having received (sadly) many letters from lawyers in my life, that is unusual. So do they represent BTB, its ...more

Alright, 24 hours later, despite my pleas to the lawyers who sent me that famous Wow Letter (dated April 25, 2024) dismissing in one sentence 20+ pages of hardwork and the Proposals, which it seems many of you want to vote on, I still cannot say who they represent. The good news is that the 'PRIVATE AND CONFIDENTIAL' warning on the Wow Letter becomes meaningless obviously and so I will be ...more

Ok well no response from Stikeman, so the Wow Letter is even more WOW...  Here is a link to it for the curious. Sole redaction being my residential address https://tinyurl.com/3a5s398d Let me know what you think I may be missing

I generally think you wasted a lot of your effort. Just sell BTB, get a taxable loss, and  move money into HR reit or PRV.  So many to chose from with very good upside

Let me let Charlie Munger answer you - taken from 2005 Berkshire Hathaway annual meeting: Buffett: I've been on 19 boards, and I've never seen a director to whom fees were important object to an acquisition or a CEO's compensation--members of compensation committees act like Chihuahuas, not Great Danes or Dobermans. I hope I'm not insulting any of my friends who are on ...more
