Many Procter & Gamble Co (PG.N) products sold in Canada - from Febreze candles to Gillette shaving foam - will be affected by retaliatory tariffs on U.S.-made goods after Canadian authorities rejected a request for exemptions, a P&G spokesman said on Wednesday. P&G said Bounty paper towels, Charmin toilet tissue and Puffs facial tissue - made in a facility in Mehoopany, Pennsylvania - would be taxed, as would Cascade automatic dish washing detergent, Febreze aerosols, Pantene hair sprays and Olay body wash and more. "The vast majority of our Canadian products are imported from the U.S.," P&G spokesman Damon Jones told Reuters.

[$$] Proxy Voting Is Broken and Needs to Change
Late last year, Procter & Gamble and activist investor Trian Fund Management—combatants in the most expensive and contentious proxy battle in U.S. history—took their fight to the “snake pit,” a rarely used venue where close proxy votes are resolved. For three weeks, 30 participants, including proxy solicitors and outside counsel for both P&G (PG) and Trian faced off across a table in a nondescript 13th-floor conference room in a business center in downtown Wilmington, Del. Lining the walls were scores of legal boxes stuffed with printed proxy cards representing most of the roughly two billion votes cast to decide whether Trian CEO Nelson Peltz, who was pushing for corporate changes, would be elected to the board. Representatives from each side, along with an election inspector—no principals are allowed—review contested proxies day after day, in this case roughly 100,000 of the cards that let shareholders be heard on everything from new board members to proposed mergers without having to attend annual meetings.

Rowe Price Group thought that founder Michael Dell’s bid to take his computer company private at $13.75 a share wasn’t high enough and opposed it publicly. Unfortunately, its proxy vote ended up costing the firm not just its vote but also a sweetened bid worth nearly $200 million, which cost the company roughly $16 million to make its clients whole after insurance recovery.
