CEASE AND DESIST...OR ELSE....!!!


Under an older posting on this blog is information re: Baupost Group, the Boston based hedgefund company that is allegedly behind Highlands quarry proposal.

Funny thing.

I have been getting reports that when people write the Baupost Group, expressing their concern/displeasure with the Baupost's group investment in an less than environmentally friendly project (you know the 2,400 acre 200 foot deep limestone mine on the headwaters of the Grand and Nottawasaga River systems in Melancthon) they get a letter from.....wait for it.....

Highland Companies. That little company based in Melancthon (or from a post office box from their "head office" in Hamilton). The messaging from Highlands to these letter writers is basically to cease and desist from communicating with the Baupost Group.

Wow. Last I heard Canada and the US were still free countries.

Just as a refresher, if you want to know more about the Baupost Group, google them.

Seth Klarman, however is their founder and here is his picture (hard to get as he is VERY elusive and oh yeah and very rich-on other people's money)

And here is the email address for the Baupost Group. I am not suggesting you email them, that is your own decision. I am only the information broker...

client@baupost.com

And seriously I have no idea what Highlands or the Baupost Group can or will "do to you", but...this IS a free country and the email and their website is in the public domain......

    Is anyone willing to share their letter with the press? Send it to mail@ctizen.on.ca and let the community know what Highland Companies true colours are! Also send it to the Banner and the Dundalk paper as well as bigger papers like Barrie and the Toronto Star. These are your personal letters people and if you want to publish them for the world to see then why not? Be sure all municipal councils get a good read too.
