Leonard Asper Resigns As CEO of CanWest Global
Quote:
Leonard Asper has resigned as chief executive officer of CanWest Global Communications Corp., citing a conflict of interest.
His resignation Thursday, after a decade at the helm of the company his father Izzy Asper founded, comes as Mr. Asper works on a potential bid to stay on as a key investor in CanWest. However, since the company and its board have supported a recent deal to bring in cable giant Shaw Communications Inc. as a 20 per cent investor, Mr. Asper's rival bid is now in conflict, a source close to the company said.
