Leaving aside the issues that relate to the administration of criminal justice and the historic separation between the provinces and the federal government, I know of no reason IMET could not have attached to it a prosecution agency dedicated to prosecuting the cases they bring forward, and to do so using experienced securities and commercial prosecutors, people who understand the way the stock market works.
I want to be clear that I'm not denigrating my friends in the Attorney General's office. Until very recently, the prosecutors I dealt with would go from a drunk driving case, to a break and enter, to a securities market manipulation case. That's a terribly ineffective way of dealing with it. As a result of that, our experience in Ontario has been that the securities commission has tended to prosecute those matters under the provincial statute rather than under the criminal statute.
