I do know that the Canada Pension Plan bought in before the split. At the time i was reading an article comparing the cpp to the states pension plan. Of course there was no comparison, not sure of the year Cpp underwent reform: its run by a board of investment advisors with no political interference or influence, since reform CPP has performed admirably and in fact will be self funded until at least 2070, unlike the states pension plan which is under water. There is no pension crisis in canada except for some private plans.
I happened to look at their investments at that time and Aurelian was one of them with 800,000 shares. Was not sure at that time if the 800,000 shares was pre split or post. It was definitly pre split.
Over the last 18 months institutional ownership has risen from mid 30% to over 46% and taken shares from weak hands, I know when i'll give mine up.
