dc.description.abstract	This paper will use literature in presenting a comparison of the common traits in one of the largest financial reporting frauds in Canadian history to those that occurred in US companies. In part two, the underlying ethical issues surrounding the fraud will be discussed and consideration will be given to the ethical standards of decision makers and whether regulation alone is what is needed.	en_CA
