Approval of Continuance under New Brunswick Business Corporation Act

I just received the information on the AGM & Special Meeting. The proxy has a vote on moving from the Canadian Business Corporations Act (CBCA)to the New Brunswick Business Act (NBBCA).

On reading through the differences between CBCA & NBBCA, I see that under CBCA, that only 10% of a company can be bought without making the same offer to all shareholders. Under NBBCA the limit is % 50!! (See Take-Over Bid Rules, p 14).

My take is that the directors are preparing to sell the company off.

My question is: Is this good for minority shareholders?

Any comments would be appreciated.

Yours truly,

Brian Diggle
