Is it time for Conrad to select a new toothbrush for the big house? Via Dean, a Canadian in France, comes the link to a report on the departure of Mr. Black from the head of his corporation...
...after admitting he and other executives had received unauthorised secret payments totalling £19m. [Ed.:!!!!!]Key words: admitting, secret and payments. Not just "cost-cutting and conservatism" after all. Something of a variation on this - except Wal-mart's shareholders got the value. Odd timing for last Saturday's praise of him in the Globa and Mail, even if for a book.
So, have we once again one of those kindergarten lessons brought back to us as adult - don't take what is not yours. Will he want his Canadian citizenship back now that he may need UI once all the litigation is over?
