ALLYCAT Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Hi GuysUnfortunately I was not able to attend. Just wondering how everything went and what Prem's thoughts were going forward. What were the crowds like?
Smazz Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 I'm going to try to make the meeting but unfortunately wont be able to make the dinner. The annual meeting of shareholders of Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited will be held on Wednesday, April 15, 2009 at 9:30 a.m. (Toronto time) in the John W.H. Bassett Theatre, Room 102 Metro Toronto Convention Centre 255 Front Street West, Toronto, Canada
basl1 Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 Pardon my ignorance.. At the fairfax meeting, is there a q and A like the berkshire meeting?
omagh Posted April 9, 2009 Posted April 9, 2009 There is a Q&A session following Prem's presentation and the formal meeting of shareholders. It's very worthwhile to attend if you're able to make it. -O Pardon my ignorance.. At the fairfax meeting, is there a q and A like the berkshire meeting?
basl1 Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 Next year I'll put it on my calendar. For now, I'll have to rely on this message board to tell me Prem's comments. I trust the good members who can attend will keep us all duly informed
Packer16 Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 Do we need any types of credentials/proxy to get into the annual meeting like the Berkshire meeting? Packer
Parsad Posted April 10, 2009 Posted April 10, 2009 No, but I would just bring your proxy card or your brokerage statement just in case. I've never had to present anything. Cheers!
Guest misterstockwell Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 Anyone have a report from the meeting/dinner? I want to know what I missed >:(
Parsad Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 I think people will fill you guys in shortly, but we had Sam Mitchell, Francis Chou, Brian Bradstreet and Wayne Cadwallader come to our dinner. Brian was the surprise guest and stayed till well past 10:30 pm! Everyone had a fantastic time, and I can't thank the guys who came out and Fairfax enough for everything! I'll fill in some more details when I get back to Vancouver on Thursday night, including pictures from the dinner. Cheers!
Mungerville Posted April 15, 2009 Posted April 15, 2009 I really wanted to go this year. Wanted to meet many of the board members face to face and get Fairfax's take on where things are headed. I'll be waiting for the updates eagerly.
Mungerville Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Good video clip of Watsa this morning by BNN at the shareholders meeting. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20090415.wvpremwatsa0415/VideoStory/VideoLineup/News
Uccmal Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Sorry Mungerville, Didn't realize you had already posted. A.
Packer16 Posted April 16, 2009 Posted April 16, 2009 Sanjay, Wanted to thank you for setting up the dinner the night before the meeting. I wasn't able to catch you before I had to leave to return to Rochester. The annual meeting was so busy with so many folks that the dinner the night before provided some great insights that were not available with such a large crowd. Thx again and hope to sit down and speak at some future event or next year at the FFH meeting. Packer
