Rumours = Possible Job searching in my future??

I work for a company owned by a much larger American one. They bought us 5 years ago from the current president, with a contract that they keep him as the president for 5 years. At which time they could choose not to renew his position....here.

There has been rumours running amuck in the last year within the company, solely based on odd hirings and behaviours, and more so recently (today) I've received a few phone calls, and one walk in enquiring about very specific things that would lead anyone to believe that things in this company are about to change come Jan 1.11.

Here is what we know:
If the American bargle company chooses not to renew the P's contract, we could all be out of a job come the new year. This is due to the fact that all the other companies owned by this larger one, are American.
All our accounting teams are in NY,  There is only myself and a few others than deal with any kind of accounting from Canada. That being said, there is absolutely no reason for them to keep a CDN rep.

Last year the big P hired someone to work in his office on a laptop behind closed doors from a separate browser than the rest of the company. Not even HR knew what his roll was here. When asked, all he could say was that is was classified. (super nice guy - dating one of the bosses young daughters- yay nepotism!) Nice way to say "none of your business".
That same person is no longer doing that particular job, but has been "created" a position in the company that has a very valid use.

That valid use, could also eliminate the amount of reps we currently use, hence less need for some of the employees we have.

The phone calls.
Me: Answering the phone in my usual spiel.
Caller: I'm calling to see if you've relocated yet?
Me: I"m sorry, where are you calling from?
Caller: A Realtors office.
Me: Were you under the impression we were moving?
Caller: Yes, I called a few months ago and was advised that some changes may be forth coming and your current building will be available for leasing.
Me: (in my head- ummmmmm) Do you recall who you were speaking with?
Caller: No, a man, I can not remember his name.
Me: If you remember who you were speaking with, please call again and I'll connect you to that person.
Until then I can not answer any questions.
Caller: Oh ok. Thanks.
(exchanged pleasantries and hung up)

A similar one called a few hours later.

The Walk In.
Not 15 minutes later I get a walk in from a scout locator. This however is not unusual since our building rocks and we allow filming for Disney Movies, Kit Kat Commercials and more etc..
The odd part was she wasn't interested in a walk around. She had a specific request that makes the above phone call and the rumours all come to life.

She wanted to rent warehouse space from us cos she was advised that we may have some space opening up. I told her she was misinformed and there was no space available. (we just closed a warehouse and moved all its contents here, plus we just upgraded the shipping/receiving/packing stations and new sprinkler upgrades to accommodate the new scaffolding storage), She questioned my knowledge.
Completely annoyed now, I  informed her that I could not discuss the availability of any office or warehouse space. It would be best she call her contact that gave her this information and make an appointment.

pttfffffff. Bitch. Questioning me .. "Are you sure?" .... wtf? How rude.
Am I sure?
Do you know how much privileged information a personal assistant, secretary and accounting clerks have? (those are my job titles and positions from my desk), Granted there are indeed some things I have no idea about and this would be one of them.

We lease our building from another huge company. We have no control over any decisions they could be making to not renew our lease. Gawd knows why, we bring in a shit load of capital (nothing to do with the leasor) and we do pay a very high leasing price for this building. Seriously, its a piece of work. Location is central, and in the middle of a business route and truck route with amazing views from every window. Shit I'm on the first floor of this 3 story building and I have a view of the mountains.


All this information and the more often than not crankiness from the big P, would lead me to believe 60 of us may be looking for jobs in the new year.

Questions.
If the big P isn't renewed, will we be unemployed.
Would the parent company keep us at all, if so, where would the company president reside?
Or would we just run the company with the Controller, CFO, COO, etc.. Can we do that?
Or was this just a rumour that made its way out of our office and into the hands of the public.
If our lease is up and not being renewed are we moving?
If so, how many people may be let go, how many will quit?

So to cover my own hinney, I will begin the job searching in November. Just-in-case.

Ah the day in the life of my job.
