AC compensation for a top executive will match what is possible in the marketplace. and the role of coming from senior crown corporation well positions this person to deal with challenges in Ottawa that is a primary responsibility.

[MENTION=804715]jc94[/MENTION] - curious whether you watch sports, movies, have a stockbroker, lawyer, specialist doctor, and multitude of other professionals and entertainers that can make far more than $2.8 CDN million annually - and last week was in NYC to see Springsteen on Broadway, based on what I paid for two tickets, and two T-shirts, figure this production is grossing $3.6 USD million PER WEEK... figure after 50% overheads, net for the BOSS is approaching $2.5 million CDN per week.

good luck Mr. Pugliese, and we will soon learn if you are earning what AC pays you - and you too will need rockstar performance to help AC maintain profitability and keep regulators from constraining too much AC corporate strategy.
