Questions have been raised about a side deal between Cenovus and Strathcona, and as a result, the shareholder vote on the $8.6-billion acquisition of MEG Energy Corp. has been delayed for the third time.

The postponement is due to concerns over the deal struck between former rival suitors for MEG Energy Corp.
