It's the short sellers who profited from this whole fiasco.  The OSC played right into their hands.  It is the ordinary Canadians (shareholders) who lost.

This was extremely poorly handled by the OSC, which is supposed to be protecting investors, not destroying their investments. 
 Jensen and Kehoe should lose their jobs notwithstanding anything that Home Capital Group was "forced" to state.

And please don't forget that the OSC allegations almost destroyed Home Capital Group and put over 900 full-time employees of Home out of work.  How would you feel if you were one of those employees or one of their dependents?  Not very good, I would think.

The carnage brought about by the OSC was immense: greatly disproportionate to the allegations against 3 former executives of Home, who never did get to properly defend themselves as they needed to settle this matter ASAP.
