Are the OSC's powers limited to the enforcement of securities laws?

  1. Yes, they are limited

  2. No, they are not limited

  3. Yes, but only in corporate matters

  4. No, but only over financial institutions

The correct answer is: No, they are not limited

The other options are incorrect because they either state that the OSC's powers are limited (A and C) or that they are only limited to certain areas (C and D). The correct answer is that the OSC's powers are not limited at all and they have the authority to enforce securities laws in all areas.
