Will this ultimately become known as having been another very tacky jihad..?? Or, just another orange-robed fund-raiser for pseudo Internet Inventors with pimples, or dimples, or whatever..... :-)

Yorkton said the OSC was forcing it to disclose the investigation in a prospectus for an unnamed client. And it made clear it was unhappy with the regulator's action. "Yorkton does not consider the mere existence of the informal OSC investigation to be material," Yorkton's statement said. Despite its objection, Yorkton said it would abide by the OSC decision "in order to avoid a penalty payable by a client." It said it acknowledges the value of a debate over disclosure of the potential conflicts a dealer faces when investing in companies it underwrites. However, by being forced to disclose the OSC investigation, which it said is "apparently based on conjecture and speculation in media reports," investors will be misled, public confidence will be eroded, and this will impede access to capital for emerging companies. In a series of stories earlier this year, The Globe and Mail revealed how Yorkton chief executive officer Scott Paterson had built a fortune for himself and a close group of associates by privately investing in stocks ahead of the firm's clients. The Globe's investigation revealed that Mr. Paterson, other Yorkton officials including research director Roger Dent, family, friends and an assortment of influential businessmen began privately buying stock in shell companies for pennies a share in the mid-1990s. Each of the seven companies tracked by The Globe were named after Mr. Paterson or a family member. Mr. Paterson's aggressive promotion of a company, in which he played multiple roles as investor, investment adviser and corporate insider, brought him under regulatory scrutiny. There is nothing in securities law that prevents a broker from playing these mutiple roles. Yorkton's statement yesterday was the first official confirmation that the OSC's enforcement arm is investigating the firm's activities. An OSC spokesman declined to comment on the Yorkton release. The company did not reveal what client company had to include the revelation of the OSC investigation in its prospectus. Yorkton said that it has complied with all applicable securities laws in financings where it was the lead, or only, underwriter. The OSC has made no allegations against the company or its staff, it added. In addition, it said, the OSC hasn't given it any details about the informal investigation, despite repeated requests. "Yorkton strongly refutes any suggestion that it has undertaken any improper activity in connection with its role as underwriter in financings in which it has acted as sole or lead underwriter," the company's release said. globeinvestor.com.

Truthseeker, you must be fairly new. RG is only one of several promoters here. He has pushed many a stock in the past. This though, he did not actually come out with a disclaimer saying he is a paid promoter. I have several pms saying he is basically out of VITC. I do not know why RG got out but, he did leave many here holding the bag. VITC is one of RG's worst P&D's. I can understand Taki being upset with RG; many people are. Back in June, RG kept insisting that some major buyers would be coming in...if you look at the price history of the stock, the buying never came in. Now you will notice how quite RG has been. He got too many in at 1.50 and he sold all the way down to .25...easy to do when you got free shares. Message 14523974

Remember this TonyRozanno that you are looking in to sometime ago? By: FootballPlayer Reply To: None Sunday, 26 Nov 2000 at 1:02 PM EST Post # of 3115 USA_P&D/TonyRozanno is obviously a RagingBull employee/staff member and as such can get away with anything he chooses to on here. Haven't any of you wondered why his account hasn't been deleted yet? It is my (and quite a few others') opinion that RagingBull itself takes big short positions in stocks that their own employees then come on here to bash left, right & center. Sound illegal to you? Write to the SEC Enforcement Division and request an investigation.
