To whom it may concern, I am a Canadian retail investor and I vehemently oppose this rule as it clearly harms retail investors by allowing large financial entities to indefinitely prolong their obligation to close their FTD's. Quite frankly, it's appalling that this rule was even proposed; however since the current FTD settlement process is prone to extreme abuse, this rule falls easily into step of the continuation to assist bad actors and other nefarious institutions in harming retail investors. Implementing this rule would be diametrically opposite to creating a fair and transparent market and should NOT be adopted. Sincerely, John C.
