"According to Monday's order, Mr. Hew breached the settlement on Jan. 12, 2012, when he opened a margin account at Questrade"

And it's taken the OSC 13 or 14 years to find out that he breached the ban? That's Rip Wan Winkleism almost at its worst, innit?

"The OSC has barred him from trading in securities or derivatives, from serving as an officer or director, and from working as a promoter. In addition to the permanent ban, the OSC has ordered Mr. Hew to pay a $100,000 fine and $38,282 in the OSC's costs."

Surely the OSC doesn't think that Mr. Hew will pay any more attention to the fine /costs than he did to the original ban, does it?
