Re: DOH merge.
There is so much garbage and venom on this thread, I have no desire to read it.
We are just pawns in a game played by others. I am not going to argue with other pawns who like me, have no control over what is happening, it's useless.
I am just going to continue to do my job, with a positive attitude, courtesy, respect and professionalism, regardless of what happens.
In the meantime, we should all make sure that the people we selected at our Unions to defend our interests are trusted and respected by our respective groups, to that we support them the day that they ask to sign on the dotted line.

Re: DOH merge.
Is there a date set yet? That makes it hard to plan for the big upcoming equipment bid at AC. For the company and the pilots. I don't know if it's better to assume it's going to pass or not. Everyone seems so sure it will despite major shareholders being against it and the other higher offer.
Re: DOH merge.
according to the Financial Post, the merger will be completed , some time in early 2020.Daniel Cooper wrote: ↑Sun Jun 30, 2019 10:22 amIs there a date set yet?

Re: DOH merge.
CR wants Transat; he will match all other offers even if it goes above 17$. That was planned even before offering 13$. So assume it’s going to pass and bid accordingly.Is there a date set yet?

Twenty years from now you'll be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the things you did do.
So throw off the bowlines.
Sail away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your sails.

Re: DOH merge.
Big question is, will the offer go up? Should I throw some money at the stock and hope for nice little 20% return?
Re: DOH merge.
I bought right after the very first announcement and I'm up 190k but I haven't bailed out yet. It could all come tumbling ass over teakettle back down to $4. Right now it's more than the AC offer so the price is based purely on what AC or others could do with TS, not what TS can do for itself.
Re: DOH merge.
No it's because the market believes the offer will go up. If you don't understand that you shouldn't be playing with so much money.
Re: DOH merge.
The market clearly is pricing in a higher bid, it has nothing to do with how well transat is doing. If the market thought AC was going to buy it for $13/share then the stock price would be at or slightly below $13.ahramin wrote: ↑Sun Jun 30, 2019 6:06 pmI bought right after the very first announcement and I'm up 190k but I haven't bailed out yet.

I'd at least be securing some of my gains. ...

Assume it is going to pass and bid the highest piece of equipment your seniority can hold heading into the merger.Daniel Cooper wrote: ↑Sun Jun 30, 2019 10:22 amIs there a date set yet?

Re: DOH merge.
Why bid highest equipment if merger people are going will be parachuting above you holding you on reserve for years?

Then I "take" offence. I'm an Anglo from the West Coast, so surely if I've "taken offence" the target might "take" it too???
Senior Transat Francophone pilots are obviously the target. Maybe they have thicker skin, or have better things to do than surf Av Can.

Re: DOH merge.
I read this j**k’s 7 posts. This account was created in May 2019. It’s obviously written by an Anglo pretending to mimic the bad spelling and grammar of a Francophone in English. This is what is called a false flag operation.Habslover wrote: ↑Thu May 16, 2019 12:19 pm BOTL I don’t think so my friends, I tink it should be more along the line of where I sit on my current seniority list now, no?
Why should I go DOH when it’s only 8 yrs ago I was hired, when I sit at 48% seniority on my list? I won’t be 48% at AC if I go DOH. That not good for me.
I should merge at 48% seniority on AC list, no?
I should also get to hold my uh left seat tree turdy as well, no?
AC pilot seem very hostile today, no?
I’m surprised anyone took the bait.
Who would have an interest in creating this kind of atmosphere ?

His energy and environmental leadership has created so much divisive inter provincial fighting that he is posting here as a diversionary tactic.
Completely illogical.....
So it must be him.
