The Financial Post reports in its Friday edition that as the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission broadens
its crackdown on microcap stock frauds to include Canadian
brokers, Canaccord Capital of Vancouver has come down
hard on its own brokers handling these over-the-counter
Bulletin Board stocks. (See Stockwatch Streetwires dated
Sept. 21, Aug. 26, Aug. 12 and July 9, amongst others.)
Reporter John Schreiner says that in an internal memo,
Canaccord chairman Peter Brown disclosed that his firm has
fired one broker and suspended another for ignoring the firm's
tough three-year-old rules on handling stocks on the OTC
Bulletin Board market. (See Stockwatch Streetwire of Sept.
22.) Mr. Brown says that Canaccord really believes the
bulletin board market is fundamentally the most crooked
market in the world. He says that Canaccord does not like the
market and it does not like dealing in the market, period. Mr.
Brown says that Michael Johnson, the president of the
Vancouver Stock Exchange, recently warned member brokers
to expect to see other Vancouver brokerages named in future
SEC actions. Mr. Johnson was not available for comment.
