“Our investment in Suncor is underpinned by our conviction that, with the right leadership, the company can restore its prior success. Cenovus Energy Inc. has returned more than 200 per cent and Imperial Oil Ltd. 168 per cent. Suncor also cut its production guidance at its Fort Hills oil sands mine in 2021 after finding slopes in the mine were not stable. Elliott said the company should also look at selling its retail network of gasoline stations across Canada to unlock a higher share price. While the stock has returned 107 per cent since the beginning of last year, as of Wednesday’s close, those gains have been dwarfed by Canadian Natural Resources Ltd.’s 172 per cent in the same period. Elliott, which was founded by Paul Singer, hasn’t nominated directors for this year’s annual general meeting slated for May 10.

Since 2014, there have been 12 workplace deaths at Suncor sites, which Elliott said is more than all of the company's closest peers combined. Suncor, which was the most valuable Canadian energy company by market capitalization from 2000 until 2018, has been in a slump recently. Possibilities could include the potential sale or spinoff of Suncor's Petro-Canada 1,800-location retail network. He said the company recently completed an independent review of safety at its oilsands mines, including a focus on the safety of contract workers. In its letter, Elliott laid out its proposal for Suncor, which includes adding five new independent directors to the company's board and then undertaking a strategic review of Suncor's executive management team, including CEO Mark Little. In a letter to Suncor's board on Thursday, U.S.-based Elliott Investment Management expressed frustration in what it said is a recent decline in performance at the energy producer.

In 2018, only one year after purchasing the club, Mr. Li defaulted on the debt, and Elliott took control of the club. Many of their own investors are sick of bruising campaigns, especially after a number of them have resulted in major losses. (Elliott has denied these allegations and declined to comment.) This position got Elliott into a protracted fight with the Argentine government.

Selon Rogers, le centre contribuera à la création d’occasions d’affaires grâce à la technologie et créera un bassin de main-d’œuvre technique hautement qualifiée qui pourra rester au Canada et y travailler. «Notre investissement dans Suncor est étayé par notre conviction qu’avec le bon leadership, l’entreprise peut restaurer son succès du passé», ont écrit John Pike, associé d’Elliott, et le gestionnaire de portefeuille Mike Tomkins, dans leur lettre. Le médicament contre le diabète Farxiga a «atteint 1 G$ US de recettes ce trimestre» et que les ventes en oncologie ont fortement progressé alors même que la persistance de la COVID-19 ralentit les diagnostics et traitements contre le cancer. Rogers a précisé que ce projet faisait partie de l’engagement de 6,5 milliards $ de la société à investir dans l’Ouest canadien, annoncé pour la première fois en mars 2021 dans le cadre de son accord de 26 milliards $ pour acquérir Shaw. TFI a affiché jeudi un bénéfice net de 147,7 millions $ US pour le trimestre clos le 31 mars, en hausse de 121% par rapport à celui de 66,9 millions $ US de la même période l’an dernier.
