just a matter of curiousty does any of your readers know how to find the board of directors salaries for Teck Cominco for 2010. I know the CEO Don Lindsay makes around 6.5 million anually and some may be making more than him. Just imagine if they were to give a little back we might get a deal. your help would be hugely appreciated.
