Pizza, thumbs up for that!
Your post certainly demonstrates critical thinking. My only rebuttal would be that the company was prepared to appear on BNN a week ago. Perhaps then this was not the reason for cancellation, but having cancelled, this would be the 'frosting on the cake'. Makes sense.
There is a logic to your position, and certainly others on the board have expressed the opinion that SI is actively expanding his position in preparation for the AGSM. Clearly as an insider he has a better view of what is going on behind the curtain than we have.
Keep the good thoughs flowing.
