PotashCorp to move to Saskatoon

Nov 8, 2010 | 3:35 PM

The government is trying to establish if PotashCorp will keep its Saskatchewan pledge.
The company promised to relocate its head office to Saskatoon.
Minister Bill Boyd had informal talks with executives there, and said he expects they will have little choice but to keep their word.
“They have indicated that they are fully aware of the concerns of the people of Saskatchewan, the Government of Saskatchewan,” he said.
“I think they are full aware that they were almost not here a little while ago, and that will motivate them.”
Since the federal government said no to BHP Billiton's takeover bid for PotashCorp, Boyd has had no discussions with BHP staff.
