Once again, we must initially focus on suitable feedstocks that are currently considered waste materials, such as slaughterhouse waste, recycled oils, low-grade oil seeds (green canola or soybean), and ruminant deadstock. Based on estimates by the Manitoba Biodiesel Advisory Council, such waste materials in Manitoba could be converted to up to 95 million litres of biodiesel annually (about 11 per cent of Manitoba consumption of diesel fuel). Research studies are ongoing at the University of Manitoba to characterize some of these available but widely distributed waste materials for use in biodiesel production. These and other initiatives aim to place biodiesel production in a Manitoba context and provide know-how to local entrepreneurs. Although the bio-ethanol industry in Manitoba and ...

This country has the resources - millions of hectares of managed forests. Natural Resources Canada states that, based on nutrient balance experiments, forest residuals can be removed for fuel without adversely affecting the natural ecosystem. In fact, residuals must be removed in some forests to allow replanting of productive tree species. Much of the residue is sent to a landfill or destroyed, rather than being used as fuel. This residue can be processed into wood pellets. Currently, we're leaving upwards of 50 to 55 percent of what we harvest on the forest floor because it doesn't make good timber. In Canada biomass and wood pellets are often perceived as being dirty and old-fashioned. This needs to change. There is an old adage, "Waste not, want not." With the vast supply of biomass ...

Adopting a governance perspective, this study analyzes the merger between closely-held Donohue Inc. and widely-held Abitibi-Consolidated Inc. Findings suggest that the absence of a controlling shareholder and weak board governance at Abitibi might explain both (a) its executives' interests in the transaction and (b) its CEO's compensation increase despite underperformance. Second, an intergeneration shift of control at Quebecor (Donohue's parent company) led to a strategic reorientation that (a) transformed Donohue into a target and (b) insured that Donohue's executives had incentives to pursue a deal. Finally, Donohue's noncontrolling shareholders benefited from the transaction while Abitibi shareholders experienced wealth reduction. The merger's aftermath provides some counter evidenc...

In May 2003 Canada's Food Inspection Agency announced that a single case of Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy (BSE) had been diagnosed in a native bom Canadian cow. In the aftermath of this announcement, the United States closed its border to Canadian beef and live cattle exports. At the time, the United States accounted for nearly all of Canada's live cattle and the majority of its beef exports, so the loss of this market was critical. By September 2003 the border reopened to beef exports from cattle less than 30 months of age, but it would be over two years before cattle under 30 months would be admitted. This article outlines the consequences of the border closure on Canada's cattle industry and considers the obstacles to lessening its dependence upon the US market.
