CanWest shares tumble

NEW YORK, TORONTO — CanWest Global Communications Corp. shares were off more than 17 per cent Friday as the company continued meetings with potential partners in its search for financing that would help stave off a possible filing for bankruptcy protection in the weeks ahead.

The media company's shares were down 7.5 cents on the Toronto Stock Exchange, dropping to 35 cents in early-afternoon trading. CanWest chief executive officer Leonard Asper has spent this week in meetings with senior lenders in hopes of securing enough financial flexibility to let the company restructure its operations on its own.

Rumours all day in Winnipeg have been that the company will go bankrupt next week.
