That bankruptcy section looks as large as the remaining history. We should add more info on Canwest's history rather than focus on its death.

==Move request==
I think the article should be renamed "Canwest" (or go back to the old name). Only an admin can do the move, I think. --[[User:Thivierr|Rob]] ([[User talk:Thivierr|talk]]) 21:51, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

I think we can all agree that the company has finally made the sane move and filed for bankruptcy protection after several years of denial and some degree of honest effort on the part of Mr. Asper. Global and the National Post will very likely now be put up for auction. (If you don't like the expression "put up for auction" then all I can say is I'm sorry you're upset but seriously, you might not actually understand what's going on here.)


== External links modified ==
In light of this situation (i.e. the largest media bankruptcy in Canadian history, which is getting coverage in newspapers worldwide), do you think it might be helpful to expand on the topic beyond the following sentence? (which btw violates wikipedia standards - subject of article is not allowed to edit article on self, whether it's an individual or a corporation).


Hello fellow Wikipedians,
Since October 2009, the company has been operating under creditor protection as part of the process to recapitalize the company.[2][3] <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Mardiste|Mardiste]] ([[User talk:Mardiste|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Mardiste|contribs]]) 01:23, 8 October 2009 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

Hello fellow Wikipedians,


I have just modified {{plural:4|one external link|4 external links}} on [[Canwest]]. Please take a moment to review [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?diff=prev&oldid=749449631 my edit]. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit [[User:Cyberpower678/FaQs#InternetArchiveBot|this simple FaQ]] for additional information. I made the following changes:
'''CanWest protection filing is a scam.''' CanWest says it has a debt crisis, then obtains a line of credit (the ABL Facility), so CanWest can use ABL to say ABL Facility, is in a debtor-in-possession relationship. Why? The 8 ad hoc groups bonds are not registered in Canada or the United States, these CanWest bonds are prohibatted from being sold in Canada and US States, as the bonds are not registerred here; and therefore there were questions to how the 8% ad hoc bonds could go about demanding their cash back. CanWest helped out by obtaining a line of credit with ABL so that ABL facility could be their front in Canada.
