Abstract

In its present legislative form and in its administration, the Ontario Securities Act has taken onto itself powers which this Commission believes were never intended...To correct this it believes that legislation should be enacted which will clearly define and limit the powers of the administrative authority to requirements under such legislation, and that these should not be deviated from for any reason of policy or otherwise.
