OSC records in this library

Ontario Securities Commission. Ontario's securities regulator, which prosecutes before the Capital Markets Tribunal.

This library holds 69 OSC records, filed between 2013-03-18 and 2025-10-22, drawn from 1 source. They are records of documents the OSC published, not a count of everything it did, and the gaps listed below say what is missing.

"Checked" means an AI agent compared the record with the regulator's own document; no lawyer has reviewed it. A penalty counts only where the document states one; OSC penalties are in CAD as published and are never converted or added to US dollar totals.

Sources

First and last dates are the earliest and latest filing dates among the records from each source, so they show what was collected, not when the source began or ended.

Filing year is when the document was published. The collection window starts in 2013 for the standing sources, so earlier years are thin by design, and the latest year is partial.

Status of the records

"Alleged, no outcome recorded" means the record shows a filing and no outcome has been found in the sources read so far; it does not mean the matter is still open.
