When considering the outcome of the OSC investigation it is important to consider the BIG PICTURE. Alberta is part of this big picture because of the large scale construction boom in Alberta. Alberta is getting a lot of attention right now because of the fact that it is a significant economic factor for Canada. Alberta CAN NOT get enough internal resources to support its growth and is looking outward. I know this because I've been there... I've read the papers and I've talked to people. Alberta has hired labor from as far away as China. And everyone who says that Alberta has plenty of LUMBER to support it's own needs is narrow in view and fails to realize all of the other needs: concrete, dry wall and other building materials/resources.
So... Back to the OSC investigation. The general perception is that SLJB has made misleading claims regarding its business operations. This perception is mainly held by bitter short term investors who have sparked the flame of doubt in so many folks.
I'm not bitter of the OSC investigation. Thank god for the OSC and organizations like the OSC. Right now SLJB is getting a good look in the mirror. This investigation is forcing management to take another look and making them realize how they appear from the outside.
Okay... so really... back to the OSC. My opinion is that the OSC will look at the big picture. The OSC will witness a growing Canada and a spirited international company trying to make its mark. In my opinion, the OSC will advise a warning that SLJB is being watched closely and SLJB's response will be that SLJB has always known this and never had any mal-intent.
That's the game as I see it entering the 7th inning stretch.
