The amendments to the Act were all previously published in the Weekly Summary in 1989, 1990, 1992 and in the summer of 1995. The bulk of the amendments to the Regulation and Registration Transfer Regulation were published for comment in October 1994, at which time information sessions for securities industry participants were held in Vancouver to explain the provisions and to receive comment on them. The Commission also held a series of information sessions about the initiatives in Vancouver in December and will be holding two more information sessions in Vancouver in January.
To help securities industry participants in Kelowna, Kamloops, Prince George and Victoria understand the proposals that will soon be in effect, the Commission will be holding information sessions in each of these centres. The sessions will provide a general overview of the amendments and direct participants attention to the elements most likely to affect them.
Securities industry participants are accordingly invited to attend one of the following sessions:
City | Date | Time | Location |
Kelowna | January 17 | 2-4:30 p.m. | Coast Capri Hotel |
Kamloops | January 18 | 2-4:30 p.m. | Coast Canadian Inn |
Prince George | January 24 | 2-4:30 p.m. | Inn of the North |
Victoria | January 29 | 2-4:30 p.m. | Victoria Conference Centre |
We hope you will be able to attend an information session. Please confirm the attendance from your office no later than two days before each session by contacting the Commissions 12th floor reception desk at 660-4800 or, toll free in B.C., 1-800-373-6393.
