Not Just CG.


Sounds like a great idea to me.

Um, have you any idea how much cash it would take to own a voting share in C.G.?
I must assume not. $4000.00 wouldn't buy you crap. Sorry.

Allow me to put this nonsense into perspective:
Canada Goose stock is, as of Friday, trading for $59.84 per share. There are about 30 million shares "outstanding". Daily trading volume averages about 2.1 million shares. The market cap is 2.1 BILLION!
Get it? Your coyotes don't mean didly!
You can cave if you want, but will have zero effect on the company, either way.

I wouldn't let them bring a camera or smart phone. They can ride with me but it will cost them $200 a day plus expenses for the education. Business is business.

Ladies and gentlemen, the fur business for all intents and purposes is drawing its last breath. I went thru 1987/88 and this is much worse.


Pretty powerful statement right here by a man who was/is involved heavily in the fur industry.

Is traceability the answer. Nah, at least not the only one.

Might it help? I don't know. Doesnt hurt to explore it cause the ranchers are doing it.

The ranchers are selling their certified pelts at a loss. Do more research. Certification is a failed marketing scheme.

Actually there are 106.77 million shares outstanding. Unless you can afford to buy at least 5% of the shares outstanding, you won't even have a glimmer of hope of forcing a board seat.

If I was considering buying GOOS I would ask myself how many more high quality coyotes the company can buy ?? Where will they come from ? How will traceability or certification add to the available supply?

Generally, when supply increases, price decreases. I can see GOOS wanting their costs to decrease but I still don't see where they will get addition, high quality skins.

One site, investopedia, lists 87% of shares are owned by institutional investors.

White, I can't verify it but I would say GOOS probably can't get anymore of the pelts of the quality and price range then they are.

If they want to make more coats with ruffs they are most likely going to have to utilize another article.

Dirt, not all ranchers are loosing money at these levels

Only took them 50+ years to figure out where their Coyotes came from. They need some educating.
