Molson's has sold their investment in Brazil brewing after over $1B in losses and lost investment capital. This investment was the reason they sold the non-core brewing assets to Lucky Gillett. (or smart Gillett)

(or smart Gillett) Wasn't the reason they sold non-core assets was the merger with Coors? Molson's saw great growth in Brazil and planned an aquisition. They spent $800M (approx) to buy the assets. They lost money every year and the stock plumeted. In order to satisfy shareholders, they developed a plan to eliminate all non-core non profitable assets. The Hab's and Stadium were not profitable and consumed capital. It was long before talks with Coors.
