knuckls not sure what you mean when you wrote : I doubt EDC was really involved in negotiating any part of this deal,

Is that assumption based on all the EDC deal information in the heavily redacted Schedule A ?
So heavily redacted it is blank !!!

You really don't see a problem with the former Exec VP and CFO of EDC (a Crown Corporation), obtaining an EDC loan for his company (NOT the company's exports) to be purchased by a foreign buyer ?

One of the issues that annoys me the most is that Peter Allen could not (or would not) obtain EDC financing just a few months ago, when Allen-Vanguard was "forced" to accept RBC's onerous terms.

What is more annoying is the fact that soon after the onerous terms were "forced" on Allen-Vanguard, Peter Allen began a systematic Asset write down of %80 value of Allen-Vanguard's assets.

More frustrating is that Allen-Vanguard was in "exclusive" discussions with Versa for a sale while these write downs were created. Valuations could seem suspect, did EDC representatives receive impartial/independent counsel ?

It is no wonder that so many people have "conspiracy theories" about Allen-Vanguard - not only shareholders - read the newspapers.

Anyone concerned about possible EDC ethics, morals and integrity oversights may want to review this information.
