Canadian corporate earnings will be under the microscope this week as investors determine whether the economic recovery is starting to lose steam, or if there’s still reason to remain optimistic.

Some of the country’s biggest companies are slated to report second-quarter results with much of the parade to start tomorrow.

First up are CGI Group Inc. and Teck Resources Ltd., while Wednesday will mark a diverse slate ranging from media company Torstar Corp. to mining giant Goldcorp Inc.

Analysts will be sifting through the details of the financial reports to find true signs of strength for the remainder of the year.

Revenue will be key for markets to gain sufficient optimism, suggested Juliette John, portfolio manager at Bissett Investment Management in Escorts Calgary.

She said in recent quarters, “earnings were very, very strong, but the revenue line continues to be a disappointment and a lot of the drivers for earnings growth have been cost-cutting.”

U.S. companies began reporting second-quarter earnings about two weeks ago and the results have convinced investors that the economic recovery is proceeding.

Still, some pessimism persists in Canada, particularly when it comes to whether the speed of the recovery will slow down into next year.

Scotia McLeod portfolio manager Steve Uzielli said that second-quarter results will likely be received positively, though it could also mark the “last decent growth quarter” this year.

“Our expectation is that earnings estimates for 2011 by analysts are too high, and are likely to be revised lower,” he said.

TORONTO – Opposition parties are calling on provincial bodies that collect Ontario’s eco fees to come clean about how they’re spending the millions of dollars they receive each year, including how much they’re paying for consultants.

Even though Stewardship Ontario and Ontario Electronics Stewardship (OES) are not-for-profit corporations and don’t receive government funds, the public has a right to know how they’re spending the fees they’re collecting, said Progressive Conservative Lisa MacLeod.

“Since these fees are mandatory, it is a tax,” she said. “And I think most Ontario taxpayers understand that their money is being used to fund these organizations. So it is, effectively, they’re tax dollars.”

Stewardship Ontario landed in hot water earlier this month when, with little warning, eco fees that fund a recycling program for potentially hazardous products were slapped on thousands of new household items, such as fire extinguishers and laundry detergent.

Environment Minister John Gerretsen was forced to drop the fees amid complaints from both businesses and consumers, but taxpayers are still on the hook for the estimated $5 million it will cost to keep the program running while it’s being revamped.

Consumers are the ones who end up paying for recycling, so it’s only fair that stewardship organizations abide by the same rules that apply to the public service and provincial agencies, said NDP environment critic Peter Tabuns, who has worked in the non-profit sector.

“In the end, they get to levy very substantial fees on the public,” he said. “They need to be transparent and rules governing their expenditures need to be ones that protect the public.”

Both organizations publish their audited financial statements each year in their annual reports. But unlike arm’s-length government agencies like eHealth Ontario — whose scandal over untendered contracts to consultants dogged the Ontario Liberals last year — neither body is required to meet the same strict rules on the use of consultants and expenses.

Stewardship Ontario and OES has employed consulting company StewardEdge for years, but it’s unclear how much was spent.

Stewardship Ontario declined to comment on what StewardEdge did for them or what the company was paid.

“Because Stewardship Ontario is a private company, I can tell you that they are a service provider to us,” said spokeswoman Amanda Harper Sevonty.

“But our relationship and our business with our service providers is confidential, so I can’t really give you any details about the work that goes on or what they actually do for us.”

OES executive director Carol Hochu said StewardEdge was hired in June 2007 after winning a competition, but didn’t go into specifics about what services they provided.

StewardEdge president Derek Stephenson provided more details about the company’s work for both organizations, from implementing recycling programs, conducting surveys, helping with communications and running call centres.

Stewardship Ontario, which started in 2004, began working with Stephenson when he was with Corporations for Supporting Recycling, a not-for-profit corporation that was hired to administer the Blue Box program. He served as program manager, he said.

“In the beginning, the entire operation was run out of CSR’s offices,” Stephenson said in an interview. “And then as they grew up and pulled away, then they established their own offices up at Yonge and St. Clair.”

Some employees then formed their own company, StewardEdge, in 2008, he said.

Since then, Stewardship Ontario has scaled back its use of StewardEdge considerably because it’s hired its own staff to do the work, Stephenson said.

His company offers expertise in what it takes to motivate people to separate recyclable materials from their garbage, as well as the most efficient and effective recycling methods, he said. But it doesn’t collect waste or process it.

“We invented the first Blue Box program in the world, and our sort of claim to fame has always been innovative ways to divert material from waste,” Stephenson said.

But he declined to comment on what his company was paid for those services, saying he didn’t want to disclose information that may fall under the organizations’ client confidentiality rules.

“We have to just respect whatever the disclosure (rules are),” he said. “Because we handle information on behalf of client, we have to be very careful of whatever information we’ve got.”

Stephenson said StewardEdge wasn’t involved in the recent expansion of the eco fees July 1, which sparked a public uproar and a government retreat on the fees.

Ontario’s stewardship organizations are run by the industry and regulated by the government. They collect fees from businesses to fund a recycling program for products that need special care, such as tires, paints and televisions.

It’s up to the businesses — whether they’re importers, manufacturers or brand owners — to decide whether they want to pass on the cost to retailers, who also have the option of passing on the cost to consumers.

They can disclose the fee at the cash register or embed it in the sticker price, which means consumers may not be aware how much they’re paying.

Stewardship Ontario took in $25.6 million last year for a program that recycles household items that are potentially hazardous, such as paints and fertilizer.

It spent $6 million on program management, $1.3 million on program development and start-up and $1.9 million on shared promotion and education.

It’s unclear how much OES took in from eco fees on electronics, because the most recent financial statements available are for 2008, before it started collecting fees.

With nearly three months to go before Calgarians head to the municipal ballot box, early polls suggest a clear front-runner for mayor — Ric McIver.

Metro Escorts Calgary was provided polling results from July 14, 15 and 20 from Escorts Calgary-based Ivrnet Inc, and it showed of the 431 people who responded to the question, “if the civic election were held tomorrow, which of the following 10 candidates would you likely vote for mayor,” 44 per cent put their vote behind McIver.

Current Ward 4 alderman Bob Hawkesworth came in second at 13 per cent and MLA Kent Hehr next at eight per cent. Judging from the top three names on the list (current and active political figures) Mount Royal political science prof Keith Brownsey said the tally indicates one thing right now — name recognition — and it’s not time to throw in the towel.

“Even with Ric McIver so far ahead, I think the race is still wide open,” said Brownsey. “But he has certain advantages to being the front runner, and certain set of problems he faces being the front runner… he’ll certainly be under much more scrutiny.”

Brownsey said those at the bottom of the list might have a tougher time attracting financial backing and volunteers, and some may consider whether a mayoral run is worth the effort, money and time.

A scam artist played on the heartstrings of a local grandfather — and got away with nearly $7,000.

It’s a scam Escorts Calgary police have been warning citizens about since early this year. And 87-year-old Henry Sawatzky became victim to the “grandparent scam” three weeks ago.

One afternoon, Sawatzky’s wife answered a phone call and heard, “Hi Grandma, how are you?” She replied, “Paul? How are you?”

“Paul” went on to describe to both grandparents that he had “a problem.” He had gone to Montreal, rented a car, had some drinks, got into a fender bender, and was fined $4,100.

“I’m pressed for time. This is the last time you can talk to me,” Sawatzky said, recalling “Paul’s” words. “Go to your bank, get money in cash, and go to the nearest Western Union.”

Sawatzky was later contacted by a so-called lawyer, “Mark Ruck,” to confirm the transaction.

The next day, “Ruck” pleaded for an extra $2,800 — this time to help one of the injured passengers.

Although suspicious of a scam, Sawatzky sent the money. Upon reflection, Sawatzky said he was convinced he was helping his grandson.

Bedbugs have become a real pest for one Calgarian who said she’s fighting to get rid of them.

Kelsey LaCroix, a resident of Dover Glen Estates who spoke exclusively to Metro, said she first noticed the bumps on her skin in March and originally thought they were stress hives.

“My boyfriend, one morning, he flipped over the blanket and he saw a blood smear and then he found (a bedbug) right on the bed,” said LaCroix.

After contacting building management, Mainstreet Equity, LaCroix said her apartment was sprayed, but the bedbugs were not completely gone.

LaCroix bought her own bedbug product and put up posters around the building warning other residents.

“I need everyone to know,” she said.

Doctors in Banff have completed the first documented transplant of living cartilage into a shoulder in a two-hour procedure in March, following 20 years of Alberta-based research.

Jim Chebib was the recipient of the cartilage, he said it restored full movement to his shoulder which dislocated eight times in five years due to damage.

Because it has no nerve endings or blood supply, it cannot heal on its own if damaged.

“It sounded like a good solution and, really, I was happy to have the surgery so I could play soccer healthy again,” said Chebib.

It appears the rush to head west to the land of milk and honey has slowed to a trickle, after the city released its 2010 census statistics. 

But for those of us who stay, experts think the news means Calgarians are in it for the long haul. The natural increase in the past year was one of the highest since 1992, signifying that Calgarians have high hopes for the city said Ben Brunnen, Director of Policy and Research at the Escorts Calgary Chamber of Commerce.

“Calgarians see this as a time to start a family and the place to be in the long term,” said Brunnen.

Also, the high number of migrants out of the city should ultimately leave a higher quality work force, said Chris Massey, Hiring Solutions Officer at About Staffing. 

“The ones that are leaving are transient workers, the ones that remain are committed to building a life in Escorts Calgary,” said Massey. 

Stampede may be over, but every year hundreds of lost items are left in its wake, some of them more unusual than others.

For the last six or seven years, Jo-Anne of Stampede’s lost and found has seen items come and go.

“The phone has been just plugged solid with voice mails,” she said as she stood in front of the jam-packed closet of items.

Along with the more commonly misplaced things like cellphones, keys, sunglasses and of course cowboy hats, Jo-Anne said there are some bizarre items as well.

“I’d have to say the silicon breast implants were the craziest,” said Jo-Anne, “(and) almost every year we get half or a full set of false teeth.”

This year, some of the strangest objects include two purple flower vases and a cake pan complete with two steak knives.

Jo-Anne said the best part of her job is putting the puzzle pieces together and reuniting Stampede-goers with their things.

Vero Bistro makes good salsa, but will it make the best at this year’s Sun and Salsa Festival?

Owner Jenny Chan hopes so.

Last year, thousands of Calgarians strolled Kensington Road and 10th St NW sampling salsas prepared by businesses participating in the salsa tasting contest. They voted the Italian-based Bistro’s salsa as having the Most Creative Recipe and Best Presentation; the Best Tasting Salsa award went to Broken Plate.

“We’re hoping to get all (the awards) this year,” said Chan, who will make her Sexy Salsa with kitchen staff just hours before the competition begins Sunday at 11 a.m.

Last year, Chan made 96 litres of salsa but ran out by 1 p.m. This year, she’ll prepare 160 litres to ensure everyone gets a taste.

Chan’s cool and fresh recipe is all about colour, with bright hues from cantaloupe, honeydew melon, mango, and dragon fruit.

But the real secret to her great salsa?

“I cut everything fresh” she said.

The festival, on until 5 p.m., also features musicians, dancers, a Children’s Carnival, and a strongman competition.
