| Abstract: | On a balmy evening last September, Ian W. Delaney, chairman of Canada's Sherritt International Corp., hosted a glittering reception at Havana's Palacio de Convenciones. The next day, Sherritt would be the first foreign capitalist company to hold a board meeting in Cuba since Castro's revolution took hold in 1959.
