TORONTO, April 20, 2015 /CNW/ - Polar Securities Inc. ("Polar") today announced it will host a conference call for fellow unitholders of Central GoldTrust ("CGT" or the "Trust") (TSX:GTU-U; NYSE MKT:GTU) to outline its proposal to unlock over $65 million U.S. Dollars ("USD") in value at CGT. The conference call, hosted by Paul Sabourin, CIO of Polar, will take place on Thursday April 23, 2015 at 1:00 p.m. EST.
"In response to CGT's continued campaign of misrepresentation, we would like to have a frank discussion with fellow unitholders to dispel any myths regarding our proposal or nominees," said Paul Sabourin.
