In a Notice published in the OSC Bulletin on September 25, 2009, the Commission invited applications for positions on the Securities Advisory Committee ("SAC").

The members of SAC have staggered terms. Five of the members complete their terms in January 2010. The Commission would like to take this opportunity to thank the outgoing members of SAC, listed below, who have served on the Committee with great dedication over the last two years.
