No, because he'll listen to his vp's and/or advisers who are still part of the old "fuck the customer at any cost" mentality. |

For years we have been taking it up the you-know-what, and you think that a new CEO who is not familiar with the business model in Canada, would simply be allowed to change things and not listen to the VP's/Board? No chance in hell! |

People raised same questions when our guy was appointed in UK. As Don said this can be good thing. At least in the beginning. |

But we are talking of multi(billion?) dollar company that will take nothing less than more money to be satisfied. French saying goes: "Plus ca change, plus c'est pareil" |

"An automobile has about 10,000 moving parts, right? An airplane has two million, and it has to stay up in the air." (on being asked "How are you going to tackle something as complex and unfamiliar as the auto business when we are in such tough financial shape?") Alan Mulally, 2007
I think a CEO who is not familiar with the Canadian market might just be a breath of fresh air. |

I think a CEO who is not familiar with the Canadian market might just be a breath of fresh air. I wonder the reporter asking this question always remain a reporter and never become a CEO. A Councillor or MPP may be. That reminds a line I heard yesterday on TVO. You have no Canada experience. As if Microsoft Windows (or other things) in other parts of the world works differently than in Canada. Anyway we will see very soon if capable or not. |
