I am still a bit pissed because I asked permission to use the correspondence with them for SEC bounty and he said NO he would rather I didn't.

That's weird. You should never have asked. And applied for a Whistleblower award anyway.

I think you should. They might find it interesting.

It does appear that Scott Anderson is still the producer of the piece. He retweeted the promo for the story today.

He would be the person to talk to.

And I know what you mean about the AMF. I have had my own personal issues with them and their priorities in the past.

Quebec Stock Frauds : Dan and Carol Get Busted

A tale from the shadier side of the stock market - from the streets of Montreal, but with a cast of characters right out of a Hollywood movie.

A joint investigation by the fifth estate and Radio-Canada’s Enquete program digs into the often dubious Montreal-based penny stock promotion business and raises questions about how Quebec’s financial market regulators failed to stop certain promoters who were allegedly cheating thousands of investors across North America.

There are the “the young wolves” - who allegedly made tens of millions of dollars manipulating the stock markets. One was indicted in the U.S. for a multi-million dollar “pump and dump” scheme. Another was ordered by a U.S. court to pay close to $4 million for alleged penny stock fraud. But Quebec never went after them.

Then there is “The Collector”– a long-time friend of some of Montreal’s top underworld wiseguys who wanted in on the action.

But the full force of the law would only come down on Dan Ryan and his wife Carol McKeown. They made money in the same penny stocks promotion racket...but their success attracted the sharks. And now they face financial ruin – and lengthy court battles.

Well you know I'm no fan of the AMF. I think they are corrupt.

Personally I think the Montreal mob had the special AMF/RCMP task force in their pockets. At least that's the impression the special AMF/RCMP task force in Quebec gave me by their past actions and non-actions.

I'm looking forward to seeing that CBC 5th Avenue special when it airs on the 25th
