excerpts;
"Three sources said a side agreement, meanwhile, would see U.S. tariffs lifted on Canadian steel and aluminium, and a guarantee that the Trump administration will not impose tariffs on most auto imports from Canada. In exchange, however, Canada would accept a quota system that would place stricter limits on the export of Canadian-made vehicles into the U.S. market, said two sources."
Canada will give U.S. farmers access to the Canadian dairy market greater than the 3.2 per cent granted to 10 other countries under the Trans-Pacific Partnership, the sources said. Ottawa will also change a rule that had largely excluded U.S.-made ultrafiltered milk, a cheese-making ingredient, from Canada.
For its part, Canada will keep Chapter 19, which allows it to challenge punitive American tariffs on imports at binational panels rather than in the U.S. court system, the industry and government sources said. The system has proven useful in the past for protecting softwood-lumber exports from duties. One U.S. industry source, however, said the Chapter 19 system would likely be watered down, such as by imposing a time limit on it.
Canada also bowed to U.S. demands to raise its de minimis threshold – the amount of online merchandise consumers can buy across international borders without paying import duty – from $20 to $100, said the sources. The move, which was opposed by the Canadian retail industry, was agreed to by Canada in exchange for still being able to collect sales tax on the purchases, a source said.
In exchange, Canada agreed to an auto quota system similar to one Mexico accepted in August, said two industry sources. Under the terms of the deal, all Canadian-made autos and auto parts under a specific quota – which is higher than current export levels – are exempted from any possible Section 232 national-security tariffs. In addition, any Canadian-made autos that exceed the quota but that meet stringent new auto-content rules would also be exempted. Therefore, Washington could only impose tariffs on autos that exceed the cap and fail to meet the new rules.

Is there a chance MEG sees a better offer? Just throwing it out there. $11.69 traded last pre market. Makes somewhat sense as 0.485 HSE is worth > $10 as of COB Sept 28.
Major holders attached from different sources. Will the HF want more $ for their shares? Will CNOOC want to sell?

Nobody knows
BNN says so, TD report says unlikely
I'm more worried about MEG rejecting the offer and tanks

Buying up some natural gas stocks on the rumour that LNG Canada approval is going to be coming as early as today and potentially this week. Several names got a nice pop on the news (plus the MEG energy deal probably helped bring attention back to Canadian energy). Picked up a few stocks that drifted back down after the pop or have yet to get a bump. Some decent sp momentum lately, potentially huge news, improvement in both nymex and aeco pricing makes it look like a good opportunity to me.

Everything really depends on the future oil prices... MEG was trading at a much lower price just a few short weeks ago and if HSE offered that much at that time, people would have said that they overpaid. Now, if oil prices spiking upwards, the price seems too low for the market but the real issue is what do those with deep pockets feel about the next few months in regards to the oil price? If they think it will go up (which seems to the market), then another offer may be in the wind.
Personally, I would take the money and run. In most of these situations, you might see another $1 in upside while there is $3 in downside risk right now and that's not exactly good. If you sell now, you can redeploy in another highly leveraged oil play like BTE.

Meg energy roughly $11. analyst expects $16-19 with potential from other bidders coming into play.

unlikely it will tank, take a look at aeroplan stock for example of the bidding process.
11 initial offer, with room for negotiation imho. lots of room for the upside rather than tanking.

There was a seller of AAV testing the depth of the bids from 3pm onwards and seems to be still be there. I was $3.55 bid and hit, adding to my position.

That completely depends on the analyst view of oil prices which by the way will translate into gains for other leveraged oil plays as well. $19 per share? No way! Unless oil is going to go up 50% in the next 4 to 6 months, no-one in their right mind would pay more than 2x the price where the market was pricing MEG at on Friday before the bid. In fact, if you look at how the market is pricing MEG at now with the bid as well as various bits of analysis commentary (as well as those pipe dream estimates), just over $11 is a long long way from $19.knightou123 wrote: ↑ Meg energy roughly $11. analyst expects $16-19 with potential from other bidders coming into play.

You mean AIM.TO as Aeroplan wasn't a stock or a standalong company but a program ran by AIM.TO..... And it was a completely different situation than MEG. AIM had something that Air Canada needed - the Aeroplan database AND to keep those Aeroplan members flying in AC seats. In some ways, Air Canada needed Aeroplan more than Aeroplan needed Air Canada and both Air Canada and AIM knew that. After all, what would happen if lets say AIM sold Aeroplan to WestJet and Delta Airlines? Air Canada knows that not only would they loose access to the database, they would gain a much stronger competitor in both domestic and international routes.
MEG has no such advantage over HSE. If MEG doesn't want to play ball, HSE may increase the offer OR they will just move on to the next leveraged oil play. MEG doesn't have anything that HSE needs for their on going business like AIM had.
