Globeways Canada Inc.

Nov 18, 2020

Globeways Canada Inc. ("Globeways"), a Mississauga, Ontario-based company that carries on business as a processor and wholesaler of pulse crops, was placed in receivership, along with its subsidiaries, on November 19 on application by TD, owed approximately $13.0 million (CAD) and $84.1 thousand (USD). By September 2019, Globeways was in default of a number of covenants in its banking arrangements with TD, including substantial defaults in financial reporting and borrowings that exceeded the authorized amount. Partly in order to address liquidity concerns, the companies sold three of their formerly-owned processing pants in Saskatchewan to an unrelated party. However, following the closing of the sale, the companies remained in default of their covenants with TD. Furthermore, since the companies' operations are regulated and subject to licenses issued by the Canadian Grain Commission, they must post security and maintain adequate claims insurance for their obligation to farmers. However, due to significant claims advanced by certain unpaid farmers, the insurer of such policies has delivered notices of cancellation to the companies. Without adequate insurance and security to satisfy the statutory requirements, the companies cannot continue operations. BDO was appointed receiver. Counsel is Aird & Berlis for the applicant, MLT Aikins for the receiver, and Simmons da Silva for the companies.
