shareholders activism on Winspear Resources thread (Canadian Mining) www3.techstocks.com ... What is new is the inkling that the Net will provide the ability to organize farflung shareholders to demand changes in policies of public companies. We're just seeing the first traces of this trend now, and it could turn into a motherlode....... (Hopefully the ipmcf shareholders can not only join this trend, but be one of the most sucessful or most influential for positive change. Someday all public companies will worry about shareholders options. Rather than a few show up once a year and talk critical to the top management(who all wear ear plugs), each shareholder that wants to voice an option can join a SI and talk about (indirectly, to) the companies policies. But first corporate management has to feel the sting and consequences by these first examples. IPM may be a small company, but the scope of our activities touch many bases, and as I said a couple weeks ago, if we do what we want to do, then these two threads will be read by other troubled threads looking for help and guideness.
